Nadira made this table of all the possible outcomes of rolling two 6-sided number cubes and finding the sum of the numbers facing up on the cubes.
Along the 6 columns, each column shows 1 number of the dice from 1 to 6 and along the six rows, each row show 1 number of the dice from 1 to 6. The first row reads, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, the second row reads, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, the third row reads, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, the fourth row reads, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, the fifth row reads, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, the sixth row reads, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

What is the probability of rolling a sum greater than 10?
A.1/12


B.1/3


C.1/6


D.1/4

There are 36 outcomes when rolling two 6-sided number cubes. From the table, we can see that 3 outcomes have a sum greater than 10 which are 11, 12, and 11. Thus, the probability of rolling a sum greater than 10 is 3/36, which can be simplified to 1/12. Therefore, the answer is A. 1/12.
