When a fair six-sided number cube is thrown, what is the probability of getting a number greater than 4? The cute faces are numbered 1 through 6. Express the answer in the simplest form of a fraction

Answer 1

There are two numbers greater than 4 on a fair six-sided number cube, which are 5 and 6.

So, the probability of getting a number greater than 4 when the cube is thrown is 2/6 or 1/3.

Therefore, the probability is 1/3.
