?  you can count. primes are 2,3,5, 7, 11 and the probabilities of each are 
$$\frac{1}{36},\frac{2}{36},\frac{4}{36},\frac{6}{36},\frac{2}{36}$$ repectively

anonymous · Answer

not sure how you would put this in a venn diagram, but the total is 
$$\frac{15}{36}$$

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, you can't solve with a vend diagram because the probability of each outcome is not the same.
