In a game, if you roll a 6 on a 6-sided number cube, you lose a turn.
(a)What is the probability that you roll a 6? Explain your reasoning.
(b)What is the probability that you either roll a 6 or do not roll a 6? Explain your reasoning.
(c)What is the probability that you don’t roll a 6? Explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

Since there are 6 numbers you can roll, that means the denominator is 6.
Since there's only one 6 you can roll, the numerator is 1.

a)
1/6 because you can only get one 6 out of the 6 numbers.

b)
The probability that you roll a 6 is 1/6 and the probability that you won't roll a 6 is 5/6. Because there are 6 numbers and only one 6.

c)
5/6 because there are 5 other numbers besides the one six that you can roll out of all six.
