If a dice is thrown, what is the probability of getting 6?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → 1/6
Probability of an event = number of favourable outcomes ÷ total number of equally likely outcomes.
A die has 6 faces, numbered 1 to 6, and each face is equally likely to come up, so there are 6 possible outcomes
Only one of these faces shows 6, so there is 1 favourable outcome
Probability of getting 6: \(\frac{1}{6}\)
