Probability the two numbers will have a sum of 5: P
P=(Number of favorable results)/(Number of possibe results)

Number of favorable results: 4
1) Dice 1: 1 and Dice 2: 4
2) Dice 1: 2 and Dice 2: 3
3) Dice 1: 3 and Dice 2: 2
4) Dice 1: 4 and Dice 2: 1

Number of possible results: 36

P=4/36
Simplifying, dividing the numerator and the denominator by 4:
P=(4/4)/(36/4)
P=1/9
