Answer:

0.

Explanation:

Fair dice are dice that have 6 sides, and the probability of rolling a side is the same as rolling another.

Since each die has 6 sides, the most you can get from the two dice are 6 + 6 = 12. Therefore, getting a 13 is impossible. So, there is a probability of 0.

Hope this helps!
