A die is thrown once then,
Match List-I with List-II
| List-I | List-II |
| (A) Probability of getting odd number | (I) \( \displaystyle\frac{1}{3} \) |
| (B) Probability of getting number more than 4 | (II) \( \displaystyle\frac{2}{3} \) |
| (C) Probability of getting number less than or equal to 4 | (III) \( \displaystyle\frac{1}{2} \) |
| (D) Probability of getting number 2 | (IV) \( \displaystyle\frac{1}{6} \) |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
A die has 6 equally likely outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
(A) Probability of getting odd number
This matches (III) 1/2. The odd numbers are 1, 3, 5, so the probability is 3/6 = 1/2.
(B) Probability of getting number more than 4
This matches (I) 1/3. The numbers are 5 and 6, so the probability is 2/6 = 1/3.
(C) Probability of getting number less than or equal to 4
This matches (II) 2/3. The numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, so the probability is 4/6 = 2/3.
(D) Probability of getting number 2
This matches (IV) 1/6. Only one outcome is 2, so the probability is 1/6.
So the matching is (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV).
