The probability of selecting a number greater than 8 will be $p=\dfrac{1}{9}$ .

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

The number of outcomes = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 } = Counts = 9

Favourable outcomes = { 9 } = counts = 1

The probability will be given as:-

$P = \dfrac{1}{9}$
