When a die is thrown list the outcomes of an event getting a) a prime

1.	When a die is thrown list the outcomes of an event getting a) a prime no. b) a no. greater than 5
Answer» Given : A DIE is thrown . To Find : Probability of getting a PRIME number . Probability of getring a number which is greatef than 5 . Solution : $\longmapsto\tt{Total\:Outcomes=<klux>6</klux>}$ = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 . 1. Probability of getting a prime number : $\longmapsto\tt{Favourable\:Outcomes=3\:(2,3,5)}$ $\longmapsto\tt{Probability=\frac{No.\:of\:Fav.\:Outcomes}{Total\:No.\:of\:Outcomes}}$ $\longmapsto\tt{\cancel\dfrac{3}{6}}$ $\longmapsto\tt\bf{\dfrac{1}{2}}$ So , The Probability of getting a prime number is 1/2 .. _______________________ 2. Probability of getting a number GREATER than 5 : $\longmapsto\tt{Favourable\:Outcomes=1\:(6)}$ $\longmapsto\tt{Probability=\frac{No.\:of\:Fav.\:Outcomes}{Total\:No.\:of\:Outcomes}}$ $\longmapsto\tt\bf{\dfrac{1}{6}}$ So , The Probability of getting a number greater than 5 is 1/6 ..
