What is the probability of rolling a 2 or a number greater than 5?

D. 2/3

Answer 1

Would this be 2/3?

Answer 2

Answer 3

Circle the numbers that are either...

a) equal to 2
OR
b) greater than 5

Answer 4

So 2 and 6

Answer 5

correct

Answer 6

there are 2 numbers (2 and 6) in the event space
there are 6 numbers (1,2,3,4,5,6) in the sample space

so...

P(A) = 2/6 = 1/3

where

A = event that you roll a 2 or a number greater than 5
