Suppose a die is tossed. What is the probability that the die will land on 5?

Sagot :

[tex]\text{The probability that the die will land on 5 is }\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

When a die is tossed, there are six possible outcomes

The outcomes are the numbers that might show up

The number of outcomes we can have is 1 to 6 and this makes 6 possible outcomes

Now, the number of 5's we have on a die is 1

So what this means is that out of the 6 possible results, 1 can be 5

So the probability is simply the number of times 5 can show up divided by the total number of possible outcomes

Mathematically, this is;

[tex]P(5)\text{ = }\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
