Probability from convolution of generating function

I have to calulate two probabilities from convolution of generating function,
$P(X_1+X_2...+X_n = k)$



$P(X_1+X_2...+X_n > k)$



Where $X_i in (1,2...m)$(probability is 1/m)



how should i start it in case when we have digits i would make something like this:



$(sum_{i=0}^{9}x_i)^n$



and then take argument before x^k and divide it by n^10.

  • $f_{X+Y} = f_X ast f_Y$ and $F_{X+Y} = f_{X+Y} ast theta = f_X ast f_Y ast theta$ where $theta(x) = 1$ for $x ge 0$ and $f_X$ is the pdf of $X$

  • So $f_x = 1/m$ when x>0 and 0 o.w. and f_y would look the same then i need to make convolution of it and this will be solution ?
