Question 455418: Suppose you had a pair of dice. You know that if you roll the dice that occurs most often is 7. The sum that occurs the least is 2 and 12. Suppose you had a pair of dice where 4 is replaced by 7. So the numbers on both are 1,2,3,7, and 6. What sums can possibly occur? What sum occurs most often?

Sketch the sample space, which is a 5 by 5 square
with 1,2,3,7 on the left border and on the top.
Calculate the 25 sums. Then answer the questions
posed above.
