Trinity created a game that uses 8 cards numbered 1 to 8 and a six-sided cube numbered 1 to 6. Each player chooses one card and rolls the cube to determine the number of spaces to move on the game board. What is the probability that Trinity will choose a card greater than 6 and roll a 6 on the cube? A. 1/18 B. 1/16 C. 1/24 D. 1/12
