Question

Caitlyn calculated the probability of the complement of rolling a number greater than 2 on a 6-side number cube. She made her calculation as follows. P (less than 5) = StartFraction Numbers greater than 5 over Numbers less than 5 EndFraction = StartFraction 2 over 4 EndFraction Did she make an error? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

Caitlyn calculated the probability of the complement of rolling a number greater than 2 on a 6-side number cube. She made her calculation

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting a number more than 2 on a 6 side number cube can be calculated as follows:

Probability = no. of favourable outcomes/no. of total outcomes

Favourable outcomes =6-2=4

Total outcomes = 6

P=4/6

=2/3 ans.
