Respuesta :

You can get a 5 by rolling :
1 and 4
2 and 3
3 and 2
4 and 1

You can get a 9 by rolling :
3 and 6
4 and 5
5 and 4
6 and 3

There are 36 possible outcomes, hence your probability is [tex]\frac{4\cdot2}{36}=\boxed{\frac29}[/tex]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability we use the mutually exclusive probability formula P(A) + P(B). The probability of getting a sum of 5 is  

1 /9

and the probability of getting a sum of 9 is  

1 /9

. The sum is  

2 /9
