to make a sum of 5 , the two dice would be :
1-4 , 2-3, 3-2, or 4-1
so 4 ways
prob (sum of 5) = 4/36 = 1/9
1-4 , 2-3, 3-2, or 4-1
so 4 ways
prob (sum of 5) = 4/36 = 1/9

It would be 1/36 because it may only have a chance to get the number 5 once so 6x6=36 and you only have a tiny chance theoretically to make the dice equal 5 when you roll it.
