Greetings,
I'm in need of some help, I don't understand what this question wants me to do.
"In a course on probability and statistics, a students learns that when rolling a pair of dice, the probability of getting a 5 is 1/9, and the probability of getting a 6 is 5/36. Does getting a 5 or a 6 have a greater probability? Explain."
This is in my textbook and we have only covered comparing and simplifying fractions, however, I think this is asking for more than what we have learned. Any advice on what this is asking would be appreciated, thank you.
