Given:

Two dice are rolled. The number of outcomes are 36.

The possibility of getting sum 10 is,


6+4,5+5,4+6

The probablity of getting a sum equals 10 is,


\begin{gathered} P=\frac{\text{ Number of possibilities}}{\text{Total possibilities}} \\ P=(3)/(36) \\ P=(1)/(12) \\ P=0.0833 \end{gathered}

Answer: probability is 0.0833.
