You have an eight-faced die. In this die, one of the faces contains 1, two faces contain 2, three faces contain 3 and other faces contain a 4 and a 5 respectively. What is the number of favourable outcomes of obtaining a 3, while a dice is thrown?
3
Given,
Sample space = {1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5}
In this case, three of the faces have the number 3. So the number of favourable outcomes of a 3 occurring is 3.
