<PRE><B>Question 398705</B>
SUPPOSE YOU HAD TWO REGULAR SIX SIDED DICE WITH SIDES NUMBERED FROM ONE TO SIX ON EACH DIE. WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY OF ROLLING THEM BOTH AT ONCE AND GETTING A SUM OF EIGHT
-----
There are 6*6=36 possible outcomes.
------------------------
Sum of eight: 6/2;5/3;4/4;3/5;2/6
A total of 5
------
P(sum of 8) = 5/36
