SOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: Write the formula for calculating probability


Probability=\frac{number\text{ of required outcomes}}{number\text{ of total possible outcomes}}

STEP 2: Find the probability of landing on a number greater than 5


\begin{gathered} Pr(greater\text{ than 5\rparen}=Pr(6\text{ and above\rparen} \\ Pr(greater\text{ than 5\rparen}=Pr(6)=(1)/(4) \end{gathered}

STEP 3: Find the probability of landing on a number
