Question:
A die thrown once. What is the probability of getting a number lying between 2 and 6?
Solution:
GIVEN: A dice is thrown once
TO FIND: Probability of getting a number lying between 2 and 6.
Total number on a dice is 6.
Number lying between 2 and 6 are 3, 4 and 5
Total number of numbers lying between 2 and 6 is 3
We know that PROBABILITY =
Hence probability of getting a number lying between 2 and 6 =
Hence probability of getting a number lying between 2 and 6 =
