Question

If you roll two fair six -sided dice, what is the probability that the sum is 5 or lower?

Answer 1

The probability that the sum is 5 or lower for each dice when rolled is 25/36, since all numbers equal to or below 5 count. Since there are 5 numbers out 6 possible, 5/6 is the probability fo rolling 5 or lower for one. Multiply 5/6 by itself, since we are rolling twice 5/6 * 5/6 = 25/36 or about a 69.5% chance
