Question:
The probability of throwing a number greater than 2 with a fair dice is
(a) $\frac{3}{5}$
(b) $\frac{2}{5}$
(c) $\frac{2}{3}$
(d) $\frac{1}{3}$
Solution:
GIVEN: A dice is thrown once
TO FIND: Probability of getting a number greater than 2.
Total number on a dice is 6.
Number greater than 2 is 3, 4, 5 and 6
Total number greater than 2 is 4
We know that PROBABILITY =
Hence probability of getting a number greater than 2 is equal to
Hence the correct option is
