Two dice are thrown at the same time. What is the probability of getting the sum as either 10 or 11?0.9870.8760.1170.138

To solve this problem, we first need to understand the total number of outcomes when two dice are thrown. Since a die has 6 faces, the total number of outcomes is 6*6 = 36.

Next, we need to find out the favorable outcomes for getting the sum as 10 or 11.

The combinations that give a sum of 10 are: (4,6), (6,4), (5,5) The combinations that give a sum of 11 are: (5,6), (6,5)

So, the total number of favorable outcomes is 5.

The probability of an event is given by the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

So, the probability of getting the sum as either 10 or 11 is 5/36 = 0.138 (approximately).

So, the correct answer is 0.138.
