# Two Dice (Each Bearing Numbers 1 to 6) Are Rolled Together. Find the Probability that the Sum of the Numbers on the Upper-most Faces of Two Dice Is: More than 10 - ICSE Class 10 - Mathematics

ConceptProbability - A Theoretical Approach

#### Question

Two dice (each bearing numbers 1 to 6) are rolled together. Find the probability that the sum of the numbers on the upper-most faces of two dice is:

more than 10

#### Solution

When two dice are rolled, total number of possible outcomes=36

Favorable outcome for the sum of number more than 10.i.e. 11 or 12 are :

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

Number of favourable outcomes = 3

p(getting a sum of number more than 10) = 3/36=1/12
