Given -

A Die is rolled once.

To Find -

The probability that you would roll a 4 or a 5 =?

Step-by-Step Explanation -

We know the total outcome when a die is rolled = 6(1,2,3,4,5,6)

So,

Probability of getting 4 = 1/6

Also,

Probability of getting 5 = 1/6

Now,


\begin{gathered} Probability\text{ of getting 4 or 5 = }(1)/(6)\text{ + }(1)/(6) \\ \\ =\text{ }(2)/(6)\text{ = }(1)/(3) \end{gathered}

Final Answer -

Probability of getting 4 or 5 = 1/3
