Answer:

A. 1/6, or 1.67% B. 5/6, or 83%

Explanation:

Because there are 6 sides on the die, and there is only 1 number you are thinking of getting. That would make the chance 1 out of 6, or 1/6.

On the other hand, there are 5 numbers on the 6 sided die that you don't want. this would make the chances of getting the number you don't want a 5/6.
