Question

I want to solve it, just walk me through it:)

Assume you are rolling two dice; the first one is red, and the second is green. Use a systematic listing to determine the number of ways you can roll a total less than 12 on the two dice.

In how many ways can you roll less than 12?

Answer 1

^ see the table.

Answer 2

All ways are valid, besides {6,6}

Answer 3

so 35?

Answer 4

There are 36 sample spaces.

Answer 5

you want a total less than 12. Cool.
So, how many ways can I get it?
all except 6,6 i.e. when both dice have 6 on their face.

so, one outcome is unfavorable out of 36 possible ones.
