Notice that there are 6 sums of 7 on the table provided. For example rolling a 1 and then a 6 would produce a sum of 7.
The reason the answer is 12 and not 6 is that you need to double it for the two dice. Let's say one die was green and the other was blue. The green die could be the 1 and the blue die could be the 6. That is one favorable outcome, but it could be switched. Maybe the green die was 6 and the blue die was 1.
<span>49 + 28 = 7(7 + 4) In a distributive property you need to multiply a term by two or more terms in a </span><span>parentheses. So we cancel B and C. Then you have to choose which one out of A or B will and up with the same answer as 49+ 28. </span>
