    12/36 = 1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    draw a possibility diagram or table where you get the possible outcomes. 1 to 6 along the bottom and 1 to 6 across.

    you will results such as 11 12 13 14 15 16

    21 22 23 24 25 26

    and so on.

    Then, you total up each of them and will get

    2 3 4 5 6 7 from the first row

    3 4 5 6 7 8 from 2nd row

    and so on.

    from the final results, count how many are multiples of 3.

    we should get 12 and over total possible outcomes which is 36, since it's a 6 by 6 table.
