SOLUTION: You roll two dice. What is the probability that the first lands on a 6 given that the sum is 10. So what I did is just 1/6*1/6= 1/36. Is that right?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! You roll two dice. What is the probability that
the first lands on a 6 given that the sum is 10.
-----
Sum is 10: 4/6;5/5;6/4 :: 3 ways
1st lands on 6: 6/4 :: 1 way
---------------------------------------
P(1st on 6|sum is 10) = 1/3
