    1/6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 36 possible outcomes.

    Of those 36, there are 6 that add up to 7:

    1+6, 2+5, 3+4, 4+3, 5+2, 6+1

    That means there are 30 outcomes that don't add up to 7.

    Of those 30 outcomes, there are 5 that add up to 8:

    2+6, 3+5, 4+4, 5+3, 6+2

    So the probability is 5/30 = 1/6.
