Question

A dice is thrown. Match the occurrence of the following numbers with their probabilities.

• A. $\frac{2}{6}$
• B. 0.0
• C. $\frac{3}{6}$
• D. $\frac{1}{6}$

Answer 1

When a dice is thrown, the total number of outcomes = 6.

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

The only even prime number = 2. Probability of getting an even prime number is
$\frac{1}{6}.$

The numbers in a dice greater than 4 are 5 and 6. Probability of getting a number greater than 4 will be
$\frac{2}{6}.$

The numbers in a dice starts from 1. Hence, probability of getting 0 is 0.

The odd numbers in the dice are 1, 3 and 5. So, probability of getting an odd number is
$\frac{3}{6}.$
