Question

A single die is rolled. Find the odds in favor of rolling a number greater than 5

Answer 1

A die has 6 numbers.

So 6 numbers them being
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

There’s only one number greater then 5 which is 6.
Since its 6 numbers, a die has a 1/6 chance of getting your desired number.

So it’s a 1/6 chance.
