Question

9.If we throw a dice, what is the probability of
obtaining a result that is less than 4. If we know that
the result obtained was an even number?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

16.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 2 is only the even no. less than 4.

therefore 1/6×100=100/6=50/3

=16.6%

Answer 2

Given:

Result obtained is an even number

To find:

The probability of obtaining a result which is less than 4.

Solution:

We can find the solution by following the given steps-

We know that a die has numbers from 1 to 6.

To obtain a result less than 4 which is also even, the only possible result is getting the number 2.

The total possible outcomes on rolling a die= 6

The possibility of getting a favorable outcome= 1

So, the probability= Favorable outcomes/ Total outcomes

= 1/6

Therefore, the probability of obtaining a result that is less than 4 is 1/6.
