Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, the probability of getting a number greater than 1 is 65.
Detailed explanation-2: -When a die is thrown, what is the probability of getting a number greater than 5? Assuming a six sided die, there is 1 number greater than 5, so the probability is 1/6.
Detailed explanation-3: -The numbers greater than 5 are 6 . The numbers less than 3 are 2, 1 . So the numbers greater than 5 OR less than 3 are the union of the two sets or 6, and 2, 1. The probability of rolling one of these numbers is 36=12 or 50% .
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Rolling a die is an equally likely event which means that probability of getting any number on rolling a die is same.
