Answer: 5
Explanation:
Given : Leslie needs to roll an 8 with 2 dice to win a game.
Number of outcomes , when we roll a die {1 ,2,3,4,5,6} =6
When we roll two dice the total number of outcomes are:
The possible outcomes when we roll two dice :-
(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)
(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4) (2, 5) (2, 6)
(3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 4) (3, 5) (3, 6)
(4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) (4, 5) (4, 6)
(5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 4) (5, 5) (5, 6)
(6, 1) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)
The favorable outcomes to get sum as 8 :-
{(2,6), (6,2), (3,5), (5,3), (4,4)}
Hence, the number of possible outcomes are there for her to win = 5
