Question

Find the probability, in simplest form, of NOT rolling a 2 on a 6-sided die.

Answer 1

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of sides on a 6-sided die = 6

`P(\text{rolling a 2)=}(1)/(6)`

Therefore, the probability of NOT rolling a 2:

`\begin{gathered} P(\text{NOT rolling a 2)=}1-P(\text{rolling a 2)} \\ =1-(1)/(6) \\ =(5)/(6) \end{gathered}`

The required probability is 5/6.
