Question

An experiment consists of rolling a number cube (dice). What is the probability of rolling a number GREATER THAN 4? Express your answer as a fraction in the simplest form.

Answer 1

1/3

Explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Since the experiment requires rolling a dice

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Total outcome n(S) = 6

Number greater than 4 are;

Events E = {5,6}

Expected outcome n(E) = 2

Probability of rolling a number greater then 4 = 2/6

Probability of rolling a number greater then 4 = 1/3
