Of the total 36 possible outcomes, let's calculate the number of favorable outcomes, giving the sum T >= 10.
They are (6,4), (5,5), (4,6);
(6,5), (5,6) and (6,6).
So, of the total 36 possible outcomes, there are 6 favorable.
Therefore, the probability under the problem's question is  =  . ANSWER
Solved.
