Question

Shen has a number cube with faces numbered 1 through 6. He will roll the number cube one

time. What is the probability that the number cube will land with a number greater than 2 on
the top face? Write your answer as a fraction.

Answer 1

4/6 which is simplified as 2/3

Number of successful outcomes (roll a 3, 4, 5, or 6) = 4

Probability of success = 4/6 or 2/3 .
