Answer:

The probability is 0.1944

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are rolling two dice, the number of possible results is 36

for us to get a sum of seven, these are the possible results;

1 and 6

6 and 1

2 and 5

5 and 2

3 and 4

4 and 3

The probability of rolling a sum of 7 is 6/36

For a sum of 12, we only have one possible result and that is 6,6

So the probability here is 1/36

If we have or in probability, we add up the individual probabilities

So, our probability here will be;

1/36 + 6/36

= 7/36 = 0.1944
