There are six possible outcomes when rolling a number cube: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
The probability of rolling an even number is 50%, since there are three even numbers (2, 4, 6) and three odd numbers (1, 3, 5).
To find the probability of rolling a number that is NOT 2, we need to count the number of possible outcomes that are not 2. There are five possible outcomes: 1, 3, 4, 5, or 6. So the probability of rolling a number that is NOT 2 is 5/6.
Therefore, the probability of rolling an even number AND a number that is NOT 2 is (1/2) x (5/6) = 5/12.
You roll a number cube twice. Find the probability of an even number, and then find the probability of a number that is NOT 2. Write the probability as a fraction in simplest form. plz help
