    Two unbiased dice are thrown simultaneously-   The probability to get a sum more than 8 is 

    A)  \[5/36\]          

    B)  \[5/18\]              

    C)  \[5/12\]         

    D)  \[2/9\]              

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Total number of outcomes = 36 Favourable outcomes are \[(3,6),\,(4,5),\,(5,5),\] \[(6,5),\,(6,4),\,(4,6),\,(6,3),\,(5,4),\,(6,6),\,(5,6).\] No of favourable outcomes = 10 \[\therefore \] Required probability \[=\frac{10}{36}=\frac{5}{18}\]
