When two dices are rolled , there are  outcomes of the type ( , ), where  is outcome of first dice and is outcome of second dice.
As both and can take values from  to  , there are total  outcomes.
Of these the outcomes (, ), ( , ), ( ,), (,) and (,) denote we have a got a sum of .
Hence there are outcomes (of the total of  outcomes) which give us the desired output.
Hence probability of getting a sum of is  or  %
