Sue decided to interview two of the six city council members. She labeled their names from 1 to 6, then rolled a six-sided die until she got two different numbers telling her which to interview. Is this sample of the city council members likely to be representative? yes no​

Answer:

Explanation:

This question seems a lot harder than it actually is since in the end of the day, she ends up interviewing 2 council members.

2 is 1/3 of 6 since 2/6 = 1/3

So there is a 33.3333... % or 1/3 chance that one of the 2 members she interviewed got chosen as representative.

Hope i could help you understand :D
