Answer:

5/6 (option 3)

Explanation:


P(A^C) is asking what the complement of A is. This means we are asking what the probability of NOT getting A is. This would be 1 - P(A).

P(A) = The probability of getting a 3 = 1/6

We can solve for the probability of the complement of the A and get:
P(A^C) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - (1)/(6) = (5)/(6)

Thus, the answer is 5/6 (which I believe is the 3rd option you are given)
