Question

A standard die is rolled. Find the probability that the number rolled is greater than 2.

Answer 1

2/3

Explanation:

The probability of a die getting 3,4,5,6 over a 1 or 2 is 4 chances out of the 6 chances in a die, or 2/3.

Answer 2

2/3

Explanation:

To find this, we need to find out how many numbers are greater than 2 but no more than 6. This set includes 3, 4, 5, 6; there are 4 numbers that qualify for this. This means that out of all 6 numbers, 4 numbers are in the probability, so our answer would be 4/6 = 2/3
