Question

A number cube numbered 1 - 6 is rolled once. What is the probability that the side facing up shows 4

Answer 1

Answer:   $\bold{\dfrac{1}{6}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 1 four out of 6 possible numbers = $\dfrac{1}{6}$

Answer 2

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of an event is the number of possible outcome divided by the total outcome. It is a ratio. The probability that an event will or will not happen is 1 as those are the only two possibilities.

Hence given that  the cube has sides numbered 1 - 6, it means that one side is numbered 1, one side 2, one side 3 and on till 6. Hence only one side is numbered 4.

As such, the probability that the side numbered 4 (Pr4) shows up

= 1/6

with 6 being the total number of outcomes.
