Is letter c a 3?
first off, any probability is at most 1.
(c)
There is only one number on a die which is greater than 5.
So, of the 6 events, only 1 is a success.
So, p(x>5) = 1/6
(c)
There is only one number on a die which is greater than 5.
So, of the 6 events, only 1 is a success.
So, p(x>5) = 1/6
Ok, what is b?
