What are the odds against of rolling a number larger than four on a fair die?

The numer s greater than 4 on a fair die is given below as

`\begin{gathered} 5,6 \\ n(for) \end{gathered}`

The umber less than or equl to 4 are

`\begin{gathered} 1,2,3,4 \\ n(against) \end{gathered}`

Hence,

The odds against rolling a number larger than four on a fair die will be

`\begin{gathered} (4)/(2) \\ =2:1 \end{gathered}`

Hence,

The final answer is
