An ordinary (fair) die is a cube with the numbers 1 through 6 on the sides (represented by painted spots). Imagine that such a die is rolled twice in succession and that the face values of the two rolls are added together. This sum is recorded as the outcome of a single trial of a random experiment. Compute the probability of each of the following events. Event A: The sum is greater than 5. Event B: The sum is an even number. Round your answers to two decimal places. (a) P(A) = = (b) P(B) =
