you roll a pair of six-sided dice (each can be a 1,2,3,4,5, or 6). What is the probability that the sum of your dice is greater than 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected number of outcome/Total outcome

Since a pair of die with six faces is rolled, the total number of outcome will be 6^2 = 36

Expected outcome is the sum of dice greater than 10. The only time we can get a sum of the dice grater than 10 is when the following are rolled; (5,6), (6, 5) and (6, 6). The sum of the numbers will give us 11 ans 12 respectively which are values greater than 10.

The expected outcomes = 3 outcomes

The probability that the sum of my dice is greater than 10 = 3/36

Hence the probability that the sum of my dice is greater than 10 is 1/12
