Question

Emma tossed a six-sided die two times and recorded the sum of the two numbers. How many different sums are possible for her to record?

Answer 1

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

6 times 6 is 36

Think about this you row a 1 first the possible result of the next row is 1,2,3,4,5,or 6 and that is 6 possible sums.

Which is 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7

Next she rows 2 with again 6 possible results

Which is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,and 8

Then she rows a 3, 4, 5,and 6

with the possible results

4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

   5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

       6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

           7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

They asked for different sums so out of the results the different sums is

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,and 12
