You roll a 6-sided die. The probability of getting prime is 50%.

Solution:

Given, that we have rolled a 6 – sided die.

We have to find the P(prime) as percentage.

Now, It means that we have to find the probability of getting a prime number on the face.

On rolling a six sided die, the total possible outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Number of possible outcomes = 6

We have to get a prime number on rolling a die

The prime numbers in possible outcomes are 2, 3, 5

So number of favorable outcomes = 3

Hence, probability of getting prime is 50%.
