Sagot :

Answer:

a) [tex]1/2[/tex]

b) [tex]5/6[/tex]

c) [tex]2/3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Rolling a number greater than 3 means you can roll a 4, 5, or 6, which contains rolling a 6. So, the probability is [tex](1+1+1)/6=3/6=\boxed{1/2}[/tex]

b)

Rolling a number less than 5 means you can roll a 1, 2, 3, or 4, but because you could also roll an even number, so you could also roll a 6.

So, the probability is [tex](1+1+1+1+1)/6=\boxed{5/6}[/tex]

c)

Rolling a 4 or an odd number means you can roll a 1, 3, 5, or 4. So, the probability is [tex](1+1+1+1)/6=4/6=\boxed{2/3}[/tex]
