A six-sided die with sides labeled through will be rolled once. Each number is equally likely to be rolled. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than ?.

Respuesta :

The probability of rolling a number greater than 2 is 2/3

Given that a six sided die with sides labelled with numbers 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 is rolled once.

Since die is said to be equally likely for each number, die is unbiased

P(1) = P(2)=...=P(6) = 1/6

For a number greater than 2, we must not include 2 and hence numbers can be 3 or 4 or 5 or 6

Probability of rolling a number >2 = Probability of rolling 3 or 4 or 5 or 6

= P(3)+P(4)+P(5)+P(6)

= 1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6

=4/6

=2/3

Therefore, the probability of rolling a number greater than 2 is 2/3
