You have 2 fair dice with 6 sides and you roll them both, what's the probability that the sum of rolled numbers will be 11?

So to get 11 you could roll a 5 and a 6 or a 6 and a 5.Probability of rolling 5 and 6 = 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36Probability or rolling 6 and 5 = 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36So probability of rolling an 11 is 2/36

Solve the simultaneous equations below: 6x + 12y = 60, x + 6y = 20

Here I would include all the working out. If the question was different, I'd also draw more diagrams and illustrate the question better, as I believe it's easier to remember and understand that way.x = 5y = 2.5

The maximum capacity of a glass box is 1900cm^3. A cylindrical cup of radius 4cm and height 10cm is filled to the top with water. The water is then poured into the rectangular container. How many full cups are needed to fill the box with water completely?

First, draw a diagram of the information given, making sure to label any capacities and dimensions. Now read the question again and find what it’s asking for, which is how many full cylindrical cups can fill...
