Question

Suppose we throw a dice once. What is the probability of getting a number less than or equal to $3$?

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

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{1}{2}$

A dice is thrown.

Total outcomes: $6\to \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$

Outcomes less than or equal to $3$ are: $\{1,2,3\}\to 3$

Required probability:

$P=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$
