    5 6 7 8 9 10 11
    4 5 6 7 8 9 10
    3 4 5 6 7 8 9
    2 3 4 5 6 7 8
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7
    + 1 2 3 4 5 6


    With this schedule where the dice is marked red, and the black numbers are the sum of the two dices, you can count the probability. Ex; sum=6 there is five numbers with the sum of 6 out of 36 numbers. So the probability is 5/36
