Question

A fair die is thrown once. The probality of getting a composite number

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 A dice has no. as 1,2,3,4,5,6.

i.e. P(S) = 6

Step 2 -Now composite no. are those no which have more than 2 factors.

now 1 is neither composite nor prime.

So total composite no. between 1-6 are 4,6 only .

i.e. P(favourable)= 2

Step 3- probability= P(F) /P(S)

= 2/6

=1/3
