Probability
Likelihood of each
event
a. Rolling a number less than 9
b. Rolling a multiple of 3
c. Rolling a number greater than 6

Answer 1

a.) likely

b.) unlikely

c.) equally

Explanation:

A.) ~~~ there are more numbers less than 9 than numbers greater than or equal to 9, so rolling this is likely

B.) ~~~ There are only 4 multiples of 3, so rolling this is unlikely.

C.) ~~~ There are an equal amount of numbers greater than 6 and less than or equal to 6, so the chances of this are 50/50, or equal
