Answer:

0.1667 = 16.67% probability of 5

Explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

The die can have 6 possible outcomes(1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6).

5 is one of the outcomes. So

p = 1/6 = 0.1667

0.1667 = 16.67% probability of 5
