Question

A number cube is labeled 1 through 6.

What is the probability of rolling a 3? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer 1

Okay what do you think are the possibilities when you roll a cube or die?

Answer 2

Okay,
\(\Large \color{midnightblue}{\rightarrow P(\text{rolling a 3}) = {\text{Number of PREFERRED outcomes} \over \text{Total Number of outcomes}} }\)

Answer 3

*A DIE

Answer 4

What are the preferred outcomes?

Answer 5

1/6

Answer 6

Yes :)

Answer 7

so would it be 1/3

Answer 8

No, 1/6

Answer 9

Preferred number of outcomes = 1 {3}
Total outcomes = 6 {1,2,3,4,5,6}

I told you the formula for probability

Answer 10

1,2,3,4,5,6 are the possible outcomes. that is 6 possible outcomes.

you need a '3'. that is one 'preferred' outcome as Parth said.

So, P = 1/6

Answer 11

thanks
