A standard pair of six-sided dice has a total of 42 dots.
Opposite faces of a die always total 7, so the two opposite faces of each die that we aren’t concerned with total 7 each, therefore 7+7+7=21. The remaining dots (top, front, bottom, back) equal 63 (total of all faces) – 21 (total of faces we aren’t dealing with) = 42.
