Answer:

It would be 0.83.

Explanation:

Ok, to start, this dice has 6 sides, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Each of these sides has a 1/6 chance of landing on it if you were to throw this dice.

Now, we are looking for chance that the dice does not land on 5. With this, the dice may only land on 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 but not 5.

Therefore, since all of the sides have an equal chance, there are 6 total sides, and 5 of the sides can be landed on, 5 of the 6 sides can be landed.

This gives it a 5/6 chance that it will land on one of these sides.

Lastly, it needs to be in the form of a decimal, so by doing divison of 5/6, would would get:

0.83333...

By doing rounding to 2 decimal places, this will round down to 0.83.
