Answer: A: 1/15

Explanation:

A number cube has 6 sides.

the probability of getting either a 2 or a 3 will be 2/6, (since both events have an equal chance of happening, and they are out of total 6 possible outcomes).

2/6 simplifies to 1/3, so that is the probability of getting either a 2 or a 3

Next, the probability of landing on blue:

it will be 1/5, since there is only 1 blue section out of 5 *equally* divided sections.

Note that the probability includes the word "and". this means that we will use multiplication.

1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15

and thats the answer!
