Answer: D
There are six outcomes.
With two dice, the ordered pairs that sum to 7 are:
(1, 6), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), (6, 1)
That is six outcomes out of 36, which makes 7 the most likely total. Three is the number of unordered pairs, which forgets that (1, 6) and (6, 1) are different outcomes on two dice.
