    Answer: 25/36

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A die has six faces, therefore its sample space S is 6

    Since we are rolling a die twice (at different times), the probability of one turning up the first time is 1/6 (i. e expected outcome/total outcome)

    Similarly, if we throw the die the second time, the probability of one turning up the second time is also 1/6

    The probability of having number greater than 1 land at each time will be (1 - 1/6) which is 5/6.

    Therefore the probability of having number greater than 1 land at "both times" will be 5/6*5/6 = 25/36
