Question

You roll a fair six-sided die. The die shows an even number or a number greater than four .

Solve it (NOT MULTIPLE CHOICE) find the probability:)

Answer 1

4/6

Explanation:

There are 3 ways to get an even number: 2, 4, 6 -> chance is 3/6=1/2

There is 1 way to get a number greater than 4: 5 (because 6 was already counted) -> chance is 1/6

Add up the probabilities: 1/2 + 1/6 = 3/6 + 1/6 = 4/6

The probability of rolling an even number or a number greater than 4 is 4/6
