Each die had 6 sides. When you toss two die, the sample space equals 6 x 6 = 36.To solve this problem, simply find the number of events that total 8 or more. Finally, divide that result by 36 and that will be the answer.Hope that helps

you should make a little chart thingy, to see which numbers add up to eight. so then it will be out of 36.
