|\Omega|=6\\ |A|=3\\ P(A)=(3)/(6)=(1)/(2)

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Explanation:

Given: A 6-sided cube is rolled.

To find: Probability of getting a number greater than 3.

Total number of outcome when a 6-sided cube is rolled = 6

Favorable outcome = { 4 , 5 6 }

Number of favorable outcome = 3

Theoretical Probability is a probability based on reasoning written as a ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes.


Probability=(Number\:of\:favorable\:outcome)/(Number\:of\:Total\:outcome)


Probability=(3)/(6)=(1)/(2)

Therefore, Option A is correct.
