2 dice = 6*6 = 36 possibilities
\n" ); document.write( "sum of 8:
\n" ); document.write( "(2,6)
\n" ); document.write( "(3,5)
\n" ); document.write( "(4,4)
\n" ); document.write( "(5,3)
\n" ); document.write( "(6,2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "probability = 5/36
\n" ); document.write( "expectation frequency = 5/36 * 9000 = 45000/36 = 5000/4 = 1250 times
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
