1 Dice Game show all possible outcomes in a table calculate probabilities In a dice game, two dice are thrown. The two numbers shown on the dice are then added to get the score. 1. Fill in the table to show all possible scores. Some cells have been filled in for you. Numbers on First Dice Numbers on Second Dice Anne needs a score that is odd and greater than 6. What is the probability that Anne will get her score? Explain how you figured it out. Sue needs a score of 8 or more. What is the probability that Sue will get her score? Explain how you figured it out. Who is more likely to get the score she needs, Anne or Sue? 7 Page 1 Dice Game Test 7: Form A
