(15) A dice is tossed once. Find the probability of getting (a) a number greater than 4 (b) an even number






​

Answer 1

Answer:

a is 2/6

b is 3/6

is the answer

Answer 2

We know that sample space S on throwing a dice is S=(1,2,4,5,6]

∴ Total number of cases (possible outcomes) n(S)=6

Event E: Getting a number greater than 4,

E={5,6}Number of favourable Gases =n(E)=2

∴P(E)=n(S)n(E)=62=3/1
