Find the probability of the sum is 9:

\frac{1}{9}

Find the probability of that the first number is a 2:

\frac{1}{6}

Since the events are disjoint, Use the formula

P (X_{1} \lor X_{2} \lor \dots \lor X_{k}) = P (X_{1}) + P (X_{2}) + \dots + P (X_{k})

= \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{6}

\frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{18}

= \frac{5}{18}
