Example 3 : Suppose we throw a die once. (i) What is the probability of getting a
number greater than 4 ? (i) What is the probability of getting a number less than or
mes
equal to 42
Answers
Answer:
I) => 1/3
ii) => 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Total outcomes that can occur are 1, 2,
Total number of outcomes = 6
Numbers greater than 4 = 5 & 6 Number of outcomes where number is greater than 4 = 2
Probability of getting a number greater than 4
Number of outcomes where there is a number greater than 4 Total number of outcomes
2/6 = 1/3
ii)Total outcomes that can occur are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Total number of outcomes = 6
Numbers less than or equal to 4 = 1, 2, 3, & 4 Number of outcomes where number is less than or equal to 4 = 4
Probability of getting a number less than or equal to 4
Number of outcomes where there is a number less than or equal to
Total number of outcomes
4/6 =>. 2/3
Answer:
When we throw a die
Obseravtions we can get - 1,2,3,4,5,6
total no. of observations = 6
i) p(getting a no. greater than four) = 2 {5 and 6}÷ 6
= 1/3
ii) question is wrong according to a die being thrown..
have a nice day
