A blue die and a green die are rolled. Find the probability that the blue and green are both less than 6

P(Blue not 6) = 5/6
P(Green not 6) = 5/6

Each one is independent of the other, so the probability that both are less than 6 is:
P(Both not 6) = P(Blue not 6) x P(Green not 6)
P(Both not 6) = 5/6 * 5/6
P(Both not 6) = 25/36 = 0.6944
