Each die can come up in 6 different ways.
There are (6 x 6) = 36 possible results.

The results that show greater than 9 are:

4 and 6, 6 and 4

5 and 6, 6 and 5

6 and 6, 6 and 6

Six possibilities.

The probability of a sum greater than 9 is [ 6 / 36 ] = 1/6th = 16 and 2/3 percent.

(Odds are 5 to 1 against.)
