Are all the possibilities included?
22/36 = ?
If two dice are rolled, what is the probability that their sum will be a number greater than 5?
[A] 1/6
[B] 1/3
[C] 13/18
[D] 5/6
[E] None of these
I think it's [C], but that's just a wild guess.

Um.....
You forgot just two, but's that okay:
1+6=6
6+1=6
22/36, reduced down equals 11/18.
But with the two that you missed, it equals 13/18.

Sorry that I omitted 2. However, that would bring it to 24/36 = 12/18 = 2/3. If we omitted another two, it would be 26/36 = 13/18.
