Ok possible arrangements to suffice the given condition are.

[1,7], [2,6] and [3,5]

each of the above has a probability of [1/4]*[1/4]= 1/16

so total probabilty for the 3 is 3/16

probability of chossing two number from 8 is 2/8 = 1/4

i did in this way for the sum to be 8 the numbers are

(1,7) ,(2,6) and (3,5) so its 3 favourable occurences

total number of occurences is 4*4=16

hence the probability is 3/16.

hope it helps..
