Question

A fair die is a cube with number 1 through 6 on

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming a fair die with 6 sides numbered 1-6,

since there are a total of 6 sides, the total possible numbers landing face up are 1,2,3,4,5,6 (i.e 6 possible outcomes)

we are asked to find the probability when the number 6 lands face up. Realize that there is only one way in which this can happen. hence the number of favorable outcomes is only 1.

Hence the probability of rolling a 6,

= number of favorable outcomes / number of possible outcomes

= 1/6
