Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

The numbers on each die are 1 to 6.

They are all equally likely to turn up. There are 36 possibilities in all 6*6

So getting a 10 can be done in 3 ways.

6 + 4 = 10

4 + 6 = 10

5 + 5 = 10

You can't get 10 any other way.

So of the 36 ways of throwing 2 dice, only 3 will work.

Answer

P(10)= 3/36 = 1/12 = 0.833333...
