The odds of rolling two dice for a sum greater than 9 are 6:30, or 1 : 5
so the probability of greater than 9 is 1/6
The probability of less than or equal to 9 is 5/6
Make sure to understand that "odds" and "probability" are not the same thing.
I don't understand your reasoning to get " 1/5 because its greater"
