I have $5$ dice, I throw them at once. What is the probability of getting $5$ unique numbers, i.e., $1\ \ \&\ \ 2\ \ \&\ \ 3\ \ \&\ \ 4\ \ \&\ \ 5$ in any order BUT NOT any $6$?
Of course they can be in any order as long as all $5$ dice are all unique numbers but not any $6$. I presume number of possibilities is divided by $6$ to the power of $5$ ($7776$)? But I do not know the number of possible permutations for $5$ unique numbers, excluding a $6$. Please help.
The question has an actual usefulness for me.
What is the probability of getting $5$ different numbers but not any $6$ when throwing $5$ dice at once?
Community wiki answer so the question can be marked as answered:
As noted in the comments, there are $5!=120$ different permutations of $5$ numbers, and as you wrote, there are $6^5=7776$ equiprobable outcomes, so the probability is
$$ \frac{120}{7776}=\frac5{324}\approx1.54\%\;. $$
