    Step-by-step explanation:

    The number of faces of each die what it indicates is the total number of events.

    On the first die, it has 10 sides and an 8 must come out, that is, 1 event out of 10 possible, therefore the probability is:

    1/10

    On the second die, which has 20 sides, 19 or 20 can come out, that is 2 events out of 20 possible, so the probability is:

    2/20

    And on the third die, which is 12 sides, they tell us that an odd number can come out, the odd numbers would be 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11; that is, 6 events out of 12 possible, the probability would be:

    6/12

    Now the final probability would be the product of all:

    (1/10) * (2/20) * (6/12) = 0.005

    In other words, the probability of this happening is 0.5%
