  1. Answer:

    1/36

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since the sample space for rolling two dices is 36.

    the first dice holds 5 and second hold 6

    Therefore, the pair is (5,6) which occurs only once. so probability is 1/36

  2. You have 36 possible outcomes.

    6 of them are a 6 of the first die,

    6 of them are a 5 of the second die.

    Out of those 12 favorable outcomes, one (i.e. 6/5) was counted twice. You therefore have in effect 11 favorable cases out of 36

    P = 11/36
