What is the probability of getting the sum of 6 or 11 in the toss of two dice thrown once at a time ?

4/9

7/36

5/9

7/3

Total possible outcomes =6×6=36

Let E=event of getting sum 8

={ (2,4),(3,3),(4,2),(1,5),(5,1) }

Let F =event of getting sum 11

={ (5,6),(6,5) }

Total number of favorable cases=7

Thus required probability=7/36
