Hi,
For sum total of 15 - There are a total of 7 possible scenarios
6,6,3 - 3 such cases
6,5,4 - 3 such cases
5,5,5 - 1 such case

Hence, in 6 out of 7 cases - we get at least one 6. So, the answer should be 6/7, Option D

Why OA is option E ? Please help!
6,5,4 - is 3! cases = 6
Total 10 cases
Minus no case of 6 prob from 1
1- 1/10 = 9/10

Ohk Got it ! Thanks & Kudos!

I still don't understand why it isn't answer D, I did it exactly like ktzsikka.
Would you mind elaborating on the 10 cases and why it is answer E?
