Given:
Total sample space, n(s)=36.
To find the probability that the sum of the pips is 6 on the upward faces of the 2 dice:
A be an event of getting the sum as 6.
n(A)=5
Hence, the probability that the sum of the pips 6 is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\ =\frac{5}{36} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence, the answer is,
[tex]\frac{5}{36}[/tex]
