What do you need help with on this?

There are 6*6=36 possible outcomes on the two dice. List them all out and find the ones that have sums that are not multiples of either 2 or 3.

Then form the probability fraction, convert to percent, and round as directed.

1+1 = 2 no good, multiple of 2
1+2 = 3 no good, multiple of 3
1+3 = 4 no
1+4 = 5 OKAY
1+5 = 6 no
1+6 = 7 OKAY
2+1 = 3 no
2+2 = 4 no
...
