help me how to find the probability of getting sum less than 5 if two dice are thrown separately
---
Sums less than 5:
2: from 1/1
3: from 1/2,2/1
4: from 1/3,2/2,3/1
----
Total number = 6
-----
Total possible sums = 36
===============================
P(sum less than 5) = 6/36 = 1/6
=================================
