The exercise with the single die was exactly that. an exercise. We are working step by step to an exercise where YOU will prove that the answer to the original question is 1/11.
You do trust me don't you?
The exercises will get harder.
And before we progress. I will say, for the record, that the 1/11 answer seems totally absurd, ridiculous, stupid.
But the word is 'Seems' We have to really bite the bullet and grind step by step to a proof.
And again, if you trust me, REALLY trust me, I will tell you right now that I KNOW CATEGORICALLY that neither you nor I is misinterpreting the question. That's a boggler, but really.... we are not.
