Question 1083805: The table shows the outcomes of rolling two number cubes at the same time and finding the product of the two numbers. If Abby rolls two number cubes a hundred times, about how many times would she expect a product greater than 10?

The outcomes with a sum greater than 10 are 5,6 or 6,5 or 6,6.
That's 3 outcomes out of 36 possible outcomes.
P%28S%3E10%29=3%2F36=1%2F12
So out of 100 times,
N=100%281%2F12%29=8.33
8 times would be the expected number of rolls with a sum greater than 10.
