Question

Ethan rolls a 6-sided number cube. What is the probability that he gets a number greater than 2?

A. 1/6
B. 1/3
C. 5/6
D. 2/3

Answer 1

Answer: D.
`(2)/(3)`.

Explanation:

When we rolls a 6-sided number cube., the total outcomes would be 6.

The number of cube greater than 2 = (3,4,5,6)=4

Therefore, the probability that he gets a number greater than 2 is given by :-

`P(\text{Greater than 2})=\frac{\text{Number greater than 2}}{\text{Total number}}\\\\=(4)/(6)=(2)/(3)`

Hence, the probability that he gets a number greater than 2 is
`(2)/(3)`.

Answer 2

D.
This is because the probability of getting a number greater than 2 is 4/6.
Therefore, simplifying the expression gives us the fraction 2/3.
