There are 36 possible outcomes of the sum of the rollings two dice
(1,1) 1 way to get two
(2,1) (1,2) 2 ways to get 3
(1,3) , (2,2) , (3,1) 3 ways to get 4
there a pattern
4 ways to get 5
5 ways (1,5), (2,4) , (3,3), (4,2) , (5,1) ways to get 6
6 ways to get 7
5 (2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3) , (2,6) ways to get 8
4 (3,6) , (4,5) , (6,3) (5,4) ways to get 9
3 (6,4) , (5,5) , (4,6) ways to get 10
2 (5,6) , (6,5) ways to get 11
1 (6,6) way to get 12
so more than 7
5 (2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3) , (2,6) ways to get 8
4 (3,6) , (4,5) , (6,3) (5,4) ways to get 9
3 (6,4) , (5,5) , (4,6) ways to get 10
2 (5,6) , (6,5) ways to get 11
1 (6,6) way to get 12
so 5+4+3+2 +1 = 9+6 = 15
so 15/36 = (3*5)/ (3* 12)= (3/3)*(5/12) = 5/12
P( X> 7) = 5/12
