Question

Compute the probability of rolling a 12-sided die and getting a number other than 8.

Answer 1

11/12

Explanations:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

If a 12-sided die is rolled, the total outcome will be 12

Pr (getting a number 8) = 1/12

Pr(getting a number other than 8) = 1 - 1/12

Pr(getting a number other than 8) = 11/12

Hence the probability of getting a number other than 8 is 11/12
