Question

A number cube has sides numbered 1 through 6. The probability of rolling a 2 is 16 .

Answer 1

6 numbers rolling a 2 = 1/6
 so rolling something other than a 2 would be 5/6

Answer 2

Answer:  The probability of not rolling a 2 is $\dfrac{5}{6}.$

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a number cube has sides numbered 1 through 6. And the probability of rolling a 2 is $\dfrac{1}{6}.$

We are to find the probability of not rolling a 2.

Let, 'A' denotes the event of rolling a 2.

So, we have

$P(A)=\dfrac{1}{6}.$

The event of not rolling a 2 is given by the complement of event A.

The probability of the complement of event 'A' can be calculated as

$P(A')=1-P(A)=1-\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{5}{6}.$

Thus, the probability of not rolling a 2 is $\dfrac{5}{6}.$
