if a number cube is tossed once which of these is the most likely outcome one, 3, a number greater than 1, or number less than 3
Naddik [55]
A greater more than 3 because in a cube there are 6 numbers  1,2,3,4,5,6
Then it is not equal to have 1 greater than a tree has four numbers and less than three has 2. So more likely, Greater than three.
