Answer: 5/6
Step-by-step explanation: A dice has 6 numbers from 1 to 6 marked on it.
Now 6 is the only number greater than 5 which is not to be thrown.
So Probability that a number is thrown not greater than 5 :-
=> (Number of Possible Outcomes)/(Total Number of Outcomes)
=> 5/6, which is approximately 83%

When a die is thrown, find the probability of getting a number not greater than 5.
When a dice is thrown then its sample space contains 6 points and they are {1,2,3,4,5,6}.
In the sample space there is only one number >5 and it is 6.
So we have only one choice to get a number >5.
