Question

in a throw of dice the probability of getting an odd number less than 3 is

a) 0
b) 1/6
c) 2/6
d) 1/2​

Answer 1

Solution :

In a throw of dice, the probability of getting an odd number less than 3 is 1/6

Sample space :

1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6

Total outcomes = 6

Odd number less than 3 = 1

So, Favourable outcomes = 1

Probability = Favourable outcomes/Total outcomes

Put the values

Probability of getting an odd number less than 3 = 1/6

More to know :

• A dice has six faces.
• Each face has the probability of 1/6.
