Answer:

5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the outcome that a  event will occur

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since two sided dice are rolled, the total outcome will be expressed as;

Total outcome = 36

Since we are to find the probability that the sum is 8, the values that gives a sum of 8a re;

(2,6)(6,2), (5, 3), (3,5), (4, 4)

The expected outcome = 5

Probability = 5/36

Hence the probability that the sum is 8 is 5/36
