Considering this, what is the probability of getting a total of 7 or 11 when 2 dice are rolled?
So, P(sum of 7 or 11) = 2/9.
Likewise, how many possible outcomes are there for getting a sum of 7 or 11 on a pair of dice? There are six possible ways to get 7 - one for each outcome of the first die - and two possible ways to get 11 - one each in the event that the first die is 5 or 6 - meaning you have eight total possibilities .
Beside this, what is the probability of rolling a 7 or 11?
1/6
