Answer 1

Answer:

1/36

Explanation:

If you roll two dice, there are 36 possible outcomes. However only one of them rolls a sum of 12, the outcome 6 and 6.

Therefore, the probability is equal to the number of possibilities that roll a sim of 12 divided by the total number of possibilities. So:

$P=\frac{1}{36}$

Then, the answer is 1/36
