Two dice,one blue and one grey,are thrown at the same time.
$(i)$ Complete the following table:
$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text{Sum} & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11 & 12 \\ \hline \text{Prob.} & \frac{1}{36} & & & & & & \frac{5}{36} & & & & \frac{1}{36} \\ \hline \end{array}$
$(ii)$ $A$ student argues that 'there are $11$ possible outcomes $2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11$ and $12$. Therefore,each of them has a probability $\frac{1}{11}$.' Do you agree with this argument? Justify your answer.
