Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{36}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the total number of possible combinations of rolling two dice is 36 because a side has 6 sides and [tex]6^{2}=36[/tex]

and possible combinations that sum to 8 are

  • 2 and 6
  • 3 and 5
  • 4 and 4
  • 5 and 3
  • 6 and 2

which are 5 possible combinations which gives [tex]\frac{5}{36}[/tex]
