What is the probability of throwing a number greater than 2 with a single fair die
Answer Details
The total number of outcomes when rolling a fair die is 6 since there are six sides on the die. The numbers that are greater than 2 are 3, 4, 5, and 6. So, there are four possible outcomes that are greater than 2. The probability of getting a number greater than 2 with a single fair die is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes, which is 4/6 or 2/3.
Therefore, the answer is (d) 2/3.
