Question

What is the pobability that a number cube with six

facesnumbered 1 to 6 will land with the number 5 face up is?

Answer 1

Answer:
`(1)/(6)`

Explanation:

We know that the total number of outcomes for fair dice {1,2,3,4,5,6} = 6

Given : Favorable outcome = 5

i.e. Number of favorable outcomes =1

We know that the formula to find the probability for each event is given by :-

`\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}`

Then, the probability that the six faces cube will land with the number 5 face up will be :_

`(1)/(6)`

Hence, the required probability =
`(1)/(6)`
