A number cube with the numbers 1 through 6 is rolled. Find P ( number is greater than or equal to 3).
A.4\6
B.1\6
C.2\6
D.5\6
Is the answer A?
Thank you
Numbers greater than or equal o 3:
3, 4, 5, 6
So, yes it's 4/6.
Thank you Jai
To find the probability of a number cube landing on a number that is greater than or equal to 3, we need to determine the number of favorable outcomes (numbers that fulfill the condition) and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes.
In this case, the numbers greater than or equal to 3 are 3, 4, 5, and 6. Hence, there are 4 favorable outcomes.
The total number of possible outcomes on a number cube is 6 (since there are 6 sides with numbers).
Therefore, the probability, P (number is greater than or equal to 3), is 4/6.
Simplifying this fraction, we get 2/3.
So, the correct answer is C. 2/6, not A. 4/6.
Therefore, the answer is C, with a probability of 2/6 or simplified, 1/3.
Hope this helps!
