Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A number cube is a 6 sided die, so the probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6.
Detailed explanation-2: -of favourable outcomes/no. of possible outcomes. Therefore, the probability of getting a number greater than 2 is 2/3.
Detailed explanation-3: -The answer is 1:3. The theoretical probability of rolling a 2 or a 3 on a number cube is 1:3.
Detailed explanation-4: -The answer is 1:2. The theoretical probability of rolling an even number on a number cube is 1:2.
