Best Answer

The total number of combinations are 6 x 6 or 36. Each of these combinations is equally likely. You can make a table with six rows and six columns to see all combinations. Two combinations, (1,2) and (2,1) will satisfy getting a one on one die and a two on the other one. Therefore the probability = 2/36 or 1/18.
