A dice is rolled 600 times and the occurrence of the outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are given below :
The probability of getting a prime number is
A. 1/3
B. 2/3
C. 49/60
D.39/125
Answers
Given : Here dice is rolled 600 times.
So, total number of trials = 600
No. of getting prime number i.e 2, 3, 5 = 30 + 120 + 50 = 200
P(getting a prime number) = 200/600 = 2/6 = ⅓
Hence, the probability of getting a prime number is ⅓.
Option (A) ⅓ is correct.
Extra information :
Probability is the study of the chances of events happening.
Event:
A Possible outcome or combination of outcomes is called an event.
The probability of happening of an event always lies from 0 to 1.
The sum of all the probabilities of all possible outcomes of an experiment is 1.
Required probability = Number of trials in which the event E has happened / Total number of trials

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Total number of trials = 600
To Find :-
Probability of getting a prime number.
Formula to be used :-
P(getting a prime number) = Prime Number/Total number of trials
Solution :-
Putting all the values, we get
P(getting a prime number) = Prime Number/Total number of trials
⇒ P(getting a prime number) = 30 + 120 + 50/600
⇒ P(getting a prime number) = 200/600
⇒ P(getting a prime number) = 1/3
Hence, The probability of getting a prime number is 1/3.
