Question

When rolling a standard 6-sided die, what is the probability of rolling an odd number and then rolling a number greater than 1?

Answer 1

You multiply the probabilities together. The probability of rolling an odd number is 1/2 (because half of the numbers on a number cube are odd). The probability of rolling a number greater than 1 is 5/6 because 5 of the 6 numbers are greater than 1. Then multiply those two fractions together to get your answer.
