In a game a player throws two dice. One of them has six faces numbered 2. 3, 4, 4, 6 and 6. The other die has eight faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Each die is fair. Both dice are thrown.

The player's score is then calculated as follows: If the card is a club, the score is zero, If the card is a diamond, the score is the number on the die, If the card is a heart, the score is twice the number on the die. It the card is a spade, the score is three times the number on the die. the possible scores that the player can obtain in a single tur. fa} ii) List the number of ways in which each score can be obtained.
