Question 1074516
An ordinary (fair) die is a cube with the numbers 
1 through 6 on the sides (represented by painted spots). 
Imagine that such a die is rolled twice in succession and that the face values of the two rolls are added together. This sum is recorded as the outcome of a single trial of a random experiment.
Compute the probability of each of the following events:
Event A
: The sum is greater than 5
Total sums:: 36
Total sums <= 5:: 1/1 ; 1/2 ; 1/3 ; 1/4
2/1 ; 2/2 ; 2/3
3/1 ; 3/2
4/1 ;
Ans:: (36-10)/36 = 13/18
-------------------
.
Event 
B
: The sum is an even number.
Write your answers as exact fractions.
Ans: 18/36 = 1/2
