Question

If you rolled a die, what is the probabilitythat you would roll a 4 or a 5?Give your answer as a simplified fraction.Enter the number that belongs in thegreen box.P(4 or 5) = ²

Answer 1

Given -

A Die is rolled once.

To Find -

The probability that you would roll a 4 or a 5 =?

Step-by-Step Explanation -

We know the total outcome when a die is rolled = 6(1,2,3,4,5,6)

So,

Probability of getting 4 = 1/6

Also,

Probability of getting 5 = 1/6

Now,

$\begin{gathered} Probability\text{ of getting 4 or 5 = }\frac{1}{6}\text{ + }\frac{1}{6} \\ \\ =\text{ }\frac{2}{6}\text{ = }\frac{1}{3} \end{gathered}$

Final Answer -

Probability of getting 4 or 5 = 1/3
