Question

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 22 on a standard pair of six-sided dice? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places, if necessary.

Answer 1

The maximum sum we can get a pair of six sided dice is 12. So probability to get a sum of 22 is 0.

P(getting a sum of 22) = number of favorable outcome/ total outcome.

Number of favorable outcome = 0 .....as the maximum sum we can get is 12.

Total outcome = 6*6 = 36

P(getting a sum of 22) = 0/36 =0

I hope this helps. If you have any question you can ask me by comments.
