Answer 1

Hello!

You are finding the probability the number is less than 5 on a 12 sided cube

To find this you do the amount of favorable outcomes over the total amount of outcomes

There are 4 numbers that are less than 5

There are 12 total outcomes

This is a probability of 4/12

4/12 = 0.33

The answer is A) 0.33

Hope this helps!
