Question

If you roll a die what is the probability of rolling a 2 or 6?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: the answer is 1/3

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{2}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that, a die is rolled once.

As, the total outcomes can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

So, the probability to obtain 2 is $\frac{1}{6}$ and the probability to obtain 6 is $\frac{1}{6}$.

Thus, the probability of rolling 2 or 6 after rolling a die once will be $\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}$ i.e. $\frac{2}{6}$.

Hence, the probability of rolling a 2 or 6 is $\frac{2}{6}$.
