and tell me how many sums of 8 you see

Answer 2

5

Answer 3

so the probability of rolling a sum of 8 is 5/36 since there are 36 ways to roll 2 dice

Answer 4

if you roll 2 dice 32 times, then you expect to get a sum of 8 about (5/36)*32 = 4.444 = 4 times

Answer 5

so I wouldn't consider it that unusual since it's pretty close to 2

Answer 6

ok
