The probability of getting a 5 from the first rolling is 1/6. The probability of getting an even number is 1/2 (= 1/6 (for a 2) + 1/6 (for a 4) + 1/6 (for a 6)). As the two rollings are independent, you can just multiply two probability values to come up with a final answer. That is, (1/6)ยท(1/2) = 1/12.

Note that I did not write this. This answer comes from Wyzant. I am only linking this to you so that you'll get the answer quickly.
