Prob(even) = 3/6 = 1/2
prob(not 2) = 1/6
so .....
prob(not 2) = 1/6
so .....

1/6 is p(2) ... p(not 2) is 5/6

There are six possible outcomes when rolling a number cube: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Exactly half of these outcomes are even: 2, 4, 6. So, the probability of rolling an even number on the first roll is 1/2.
Now, we want to find the probability of rolling a number that is even on the first roll AND not 2 on the second roll. There are three even numbers, two of which are not 2. So, the probability of rolling a number that is even AND not 2 is (2/3) x (1/6) = 1/9.
Therefore, P(even, then not 2) = 1/2 x 1/9 = 1/18.
Answer: 1/18.
