for sum to be 8 = (2,6)(6,2)(3,5)(5,3)(4,4)=5
for sum to be 9 =(3,6)(6,3)(4,5)(5,4)=4
for sum to be 10 =(4,6)(6,4)(5,5) = 3
so 8 is the answer

If two dice are thrown,then the probability of getting sum of two dice from 2 to 12 is 1,because i every case we will get the sum 2 to 12...so,36/36=1...
so,from 8,9,10 8 would be appear more often a long time...beacuse,the sum of two dice 8 will appear for 5 times,9 for 4 times and 10 for 3 times....
so,8 is the answer....
