you roll 1 die. Find the probability of the number you end up rolling being a 3 or a 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any ideas for this one? i die has six sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was thinking 1/12 ? but i dunno

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ratio of number of favorable outcomes (there are two of them) to the number of total possible outcomes (there are six of those)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its only 12 if rolled twice and still bottom of the fraction w/ 6 so that would be 1/6 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thankyouuus !!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have 2 choices (3 &5 ) and their are 6 sides on a dice. So 2/6 simplifies to 1/3:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

two possible favorable outcomes out of six total \[\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright thats perfect thanks guys!
