D.5/7 I mean,it's pretty simple. If the probability of landing 6 is 2/7
2-7=5.
5/7
It's simple once worked out.

ANS: D.5/7
Hope this helps!

This is really simple.  We know that landing a 6 is a 2/7 chance that means there is a 5/7 chance of NOT landing a 6 which means that the probability of landing a number that is not 6 would be 5/7.  Your answer is D.) 5/7
