In a simultaneous throw of pair of dice. Find the probability of getting the total more than 7.

7/12

5/12

11/12

1/12

Here n(S) = (6 x 6) = 36

Let E = event of getting a total more than 7
= {(2,6),(3,5),(3,6),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)}

Therefore,P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 15/36 = 5/12.

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
