Answer:

1/3 or 3/6 they are the same thing

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability of rolling an odd number is 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

probability: desired/all

Let's find the possible outcomes of rolling odd.

1,3,5 are all odd. We have 3 outcomes.

Now find the possible outcome of a power of 2.

2 is

2

1

, 4 is

2

2

. We have 2 DIFFERENT outcomes.

(If these outcomes overlapped, we would have to subtract to get unique outcomes. In this case, these outcomes are different)

Now, we find the total number of possible outcomes.

A dice has 6 different outcomes.

Now add up the desired outcomes,

3 + 2 = 5

and so the probability is

5/6
