Question

The probability of getting a whole number when a die is thrown is ?

Answer 1

Given,

A die is thrown

To Find,

Probability of getting a whole number.

Solution,

The formula for calculating the probability is

Probability of an event = Favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

In this case,

Getting a whole number is a favorable outcome

Favorable outcomes = 6

Total number of outcomes = 6

So,

P (getting a whole number) = 6/6

                                              = 1 (sure event)

Hence, the probability of getting a whole number is 1.

Answer 2

Given; A die is thrown

To Find; The probability of getting a whole number when a die is thrown.

Solution; Probability of vetting an event =

Favourable outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

A whole number is a number that starts from zero and ends up at infinity

Total number of whole numbers =6

Total number of possible outcomes=6

Probability=6/6=1

Hence the probability is 1
