Simple Formula
25%

The formula is actually in the probability thread but it's not immediately apparent.

(r/6)^n*(1-r/6)^(d-n)*(n!/(d!)*(n-d)!))

r = number of results you want on a single die
d = number of dice
n = number of dice with result you want


If you ever want to plug it into a spreadsheet use this formula.

(r/6)^n*(1-r/6)^(d-n)*combin(n, d)
