Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

There are 6 x 6 = 36 possible outcomes when rolling two dice. To get a sum greater than 5, we can have the following results: (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), and (6, 6). There are a total of 25 different ways of rolling two dice and getting a sum greater than 5.

Therefore, the probability of rolling a sum greater than 5 is 25/36.
