Answer 1

Answer:

5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

two dices are rolled and sum should be 8.

Total outcomes = 6*6 = 36

Required outcome = (2,6),(3,5),(4,4),(5,3),(6,2) =5

Probability of winning = 5/36

Answer 2

Answer:

5/36

total no. of required outcomes=5 (6,2; 5,3; 4,4; 3,3; 2,6)

total no. of outcomes=36
