What is the probability that the two dice have a sum of 11?

Answer
A
cap p times sum of 11 is equal to 1 over 12
B
cap p times sum of 11 is equal to 1 over 18
C
cap p times sum of 11 is equal to 1 over 17
D

Explanation

Two fair six-sided dice have 6 × 6 = 36 equally likely outcomes. A sum of 11 occurs in two outcomes: (5, 6) and (6, 5). Thus the probability is 2/36 = 1/18, so the correct choice is “1/18.”
