Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem bothers on probability
Given that two dice are expected to give an outcome of sum greater than 8
But in the problem statement the first die is already settled since it is showing 6 already.
Now for the second die, the possible outcomes that will add up with the first die to produce a figure greater than 8 are (3,4,5,6)
The probability of obtaining either of these numbers is 4/6= 2/3
Having the first die settled, this means that the probability of obtaining a sum of 8 is 2/3
