What is the probability of throwing a number greater than 2 with a single fair die
- 1/6
- 1/3
- 1/2
-
2/3
- 5/6
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
If a die is rolled once, the probability of getting a number greater than 2 is \(\frac{2}{3}\).
i.e Pr( number greater than 2) = \(\frac{\text{ no of required outcome}}{\text{total no of expected outcome}}\)
= \(\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}\)
