Question

A six-sided die with sides labeled 1 through 6 will be rolled once. Each number is equally likely to be rolled. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 2

Answer 1

4/6 or 2/3. Depends if your teacher wants it reduced.

Explanation:

Each number has a 1 out of 6 chance to be rolled. so it's 1/6 for rolling a 3, 1/6 for rolling a 4, 1/6 for rolling a 5, and 1/6 for rolling a 6. 4 x 1/6 = 4/6
