Answer:

The probability is 7/36

Explanation:

When two legal dice are thrown the options to obtain a score of 3 in total, are: (1, 2) and (2,1). The options to obtain a score of 6 in total are: (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), (5, 1). The probability of obtaining each event individually exhibited is 1/36. Therefore, the probability of obtaining any of the exposed events is 7 (1/36) = 7/36
