Question

A die is thrown. Find the probability of getting.

(i) An odd prime number.

(ii) A multiple of 3​

Answer 1

Total no. of outcomes = 6 {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Odd prime events = P(O) = 2{3,5}

• So, probability of getting an odd prime number = 2/6=1/3

Multiples of 3 = 2{3,6}

• Probability of getting a multiple of 3 = 2/6 = 1/3
