Answer:

11/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the probability that neither dice shows a 5 (also means the dice can show any number except 5- where there are 5 possible choices out of 6):

= 5/6 x 5/6

=25/36

If we subtract the probability that neither dice shows a 5, we can obtain the probability that at least 1 dice shows a 5- (either one of them is 5, or both of them is 5)

1- 25/36

=11/36
