Can someone tell me the odds of rolling these numbers on 2d6?

-2,3
-4,5
-6,7,8
-2,3,11,12

Thanks in advance as always.

Probability Calculation

The answers to your specific questions are likely found here:

Generally speaking, some total adding up to 7 is the most likely, since there are more combinations for 7 than any other number. The numbers with fewer possible combinations (like rolling a 2 or a 12, each having one possible combination)have a much lower probability.

Of each separately, you can

Of each separately, you can add them up if it is an "A or B"

3/36th (1+2)
7/36th (3+4)
16/36th (5+6+5)
6/36th (1+2+2+1)

If you want the percentages:
8,3%
19,4%
44,4%
16,7%

Sorry guys, was being dense last night and didn't ask my question properly. I figured it out in the meantime. :-)

I know you got it already,

I know you got it already, but when I need to figure out probability I go to anydice.com

For your specific question, I'd then type "output 2d6" on the site and calculate.
