Probability

Question

Using a pair of fair dice, what is the probability of rolling either a sum of 6 or rolling a 6 on the face of one or both of the dice?

Answer 1

have you made a 6 by 6 array showing all combinations of Die#1 and Die#2?

put the TOTAL in each of the 36 slots. 

this enables you to count the # of ways of getting any total, 2 through 12.

this table will enable you to answer such questions quite easily.
