Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The outcomes where the sum is not greater than 5 are (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (3,1), (3,2), and (4,1), totaling 10 outcomes. Since there are 36 possible outcomes when rolling two dice (6 options for the first die times 6 options for the second die), the probability is $ \frac{10}{36} = \frac{5}{18} $.
