What's the probability that the die will land on a number greater than 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1? i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are u a k12 student if u are i am to lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The numbers on a die are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Your question is asking for values greater than 4. How many of those numbers are greater than 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right, 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's more complex. This is the first probability. 2 out of the 6 sides are greater than 4, so the 1st probabilty is 2/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does that part make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k so its 2/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the dice, yes. But now you have to include the checkerboard

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What fraction of the spaces on the board are red?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there are only two colors on the board...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im really sorry D:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 1/2 of them are red

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So multiply the 2/6 and 1/2 to get your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.16666666666

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/18 is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/6 = 0.16666666666 @k12user is correct
