Answer:

There would be an 83.3% chance (0.83 chance) that the die would not land on 5.

Explanation:

Use the probability formula:
(desired)/(total) (desired events over total events)

  • There are 5 desired events. (The events that the die would not land on five)
  • There are 6 total events.


(desired)/(total) =(5)/(6)= 0.8333333

Rounded to two decimal places, there would be a 0.83 chance that the die would not land on 5.
