13

A number cube with faces numbered 1-6 is rolled,
Determine whether each statement correctly describes the likelihood of an event based on the given number cube.
Select True or False for each statement.
It is likely that a number greater than 2 is obtained on the number cube.
It is unlikely that a number less than 4 is obtained on the number cube.
It is certain that an odd or even number is obtained on the number cube.
It is unlikely that a number less than 5 is obtained on the number cube.
True False

Answer 1

Answer: True - There are four numbers greater than 2 (3, 4, 5, and 6) out of a total of six possible outcomes, making it likely that a number greater than 2 will be obtained.

False - There are three numbers less than 4 (1, 2, and 3) out of a total of six possible outcomes, making it likely that a number less than 4 will be obtained.

True - All numbers on the cube are either odd or even, so it is certain that an odd or even number will be obtained.

True - There are only two numbers less than 5 (1 and 2) out of a total of six possible outcomes, making it unlikely that a number less than 5 will be obtained.
