Two dice are rolled. Find the probability of getting a 5 on either die or the sum of both dice is 5.

1 answer

For either-or probabilities, add the individual probabilities. P(5) = 1/6

Sum of 5 can be obtained by (1,4)(4,1)(2,3)(3,2)

P(1,4) = 1/6 * 1/6 = ?
P(4,1) = ?
P(3,2) = 1/6 * 1/6 = ?
P(2,3) = ?
