Question

Carmen rolls a cube with sides labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F.

What is the number of possible outcomes?

Answer 1

there are six outcomes. so , you would put 1 over 6 for all of them and add them together, which results in 6 possibilities.

Answer 2

The cube may come to rest with any one of its sides upright. So there are six (6) possible outcomes of a single roll. Technically, there is also some finite probability that the cube will come to rest standing on one of its edges, or on one corner. These probabilities are so small that these additional possible outcomes are almost always ignored, and not counted.
