"Experiment, Sample Space and Event"
Two dice are rolled. Find the event that the two numbers that come up:
What is the event that the two numbers that come up have a sum of 5 Or 10?
Now what this confuses me that is it either I pick one of both of theses numbers or pick both of them. Feel free to do your research if you don't know some of them.

Answer:
7/36
Step-by-step explanation:
no. of event in a sum of 5:
(4+1), (3+2), (2+3), (4+1) = 4 successful trials
no. of event in a sum of 10:
(6+4), (5+5), (6+4) = 3 successful trials
total number of trials is 36 (constant since it is two dice)
probability = 4/36 + 3/36
= 7/36
