Step-by-step explanation:

1) Draw a table

+ 1 2 3 4 5 6

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

2 3 4 5 6 7 8

3 4 5 6 7 8 9

4 5 6 7 8 9 10

5 6 7 8 9 10 11

6 7 8 9 10 11 12

2) Then you count how many are above 5 (not in bold). I got 26, so this will be your numerator.

3) Finally, for the denominator, do 6x6 which is 36.

Answer:

Your answer as a fraction will be 26/36 (if asked to simplify, then it's 13/18)
