&lt;pre&gt;   
Below are all 36 possible rolls.  The red ones are the
only ones with a 5 on either die or the sum of both dice is 5 

(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(1,4) (1,5)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt; (1,6)

(2,1) (2,2) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(2,3)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (2,4) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(2,5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (2,6)
 
(3,1) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(3,2)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (3,3) (3,4) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(3,5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (3,6) 

&lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(4,1)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(4,5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (4,6)
 
&lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 
(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;(6,5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; (6,6)  

Count the red ones.  There are 15.  The probability is 15 out of 36,
or 15/36 which reduces to 5/12.
