Question

For the following question, find the theoretical probaility of each event when rolling a standard 6 sided die.P(4)

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Explanation:

In a standard 6-sided die, there are 6 faces.

Therefore, the number of outcomes in the sample space, n(S)=6

There is only one face labeled 4, so, n(face labeled 4)=1

The theoretical probability of rolling a 4 is:

$\begin{gathered} P(4)=\frac{n(4)}{n(S)} \\ =\frac{1}{6} \end{gathered}$
