Find the probability of rolling the sum of 10:

\frac{1}{12}

Find the probability of the sum 11:

\frac{1}{18}

Since the events are disjoint, Use the formula

P (X_{1} \lor X_{2} \lor \dots \lor X_{k}) = P (X_{1}) + P (X_{2}) + \dots + P (X_{k})

= \frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{18}

\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{18} = \frac{5}{36}

= \frac{5}{36}
