    Step-by-step explanation:

    The possible 36 outcomes are as follows

    1+1=2

    1+2 or 2+1=3

    1+3 or 2+2 or 3+1=4

    1+4 or 2+3 or 3+2 or 4+1=5

    The above sums are not greater than 5. They are 10 out of possible 36 outcomes

    1+5 or 2+4 or 3+3 or 4+2 or 5+1=6

    1+6 or 2+5 or 3+4 or 4+3 or 5+2 or 6+1=7

    2+6 or 3+5 or 4+4 or 5+3 or 6+2=8

    3+6 or 4+5 or 5+4 or 6+3=9

    4+6 or 5+5 or 6+4 = 10

    5+6 or 6+5 = 11

    6+6=12

    It is evident that 26 out of 36 outcomes will have a sum greater than 5

    26/36=13/18
