Two distinct numbers are selected simultaneously and at random from the set {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} . What is the probability that the smaller one divides the larger one? Express your answer as a common fraction.

There are \({8 \choose 2 } = 28\) combinations. 

 

Now, just count the number of pairs that work and find the probability smiley
