Answer:


(1)/(18)

Explanation:

  • First, let’ find the probability of rolling a number greater than a 4
  • The scorers that satisfy this are 5 & 6
  • This is a
    (1)/(3) chance of getting a 5 or a 6
  • AND means × when it comes to probability
  • Chance of rolling a 5 is
    (1)/(6)
  • Multipy the two fractions together

  • (1)/(3)*(1)/(6)=(1)/(18)
