A standard six-sided die has six possible outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Out of these numbers, the prime numbers are 2, 3, and 5. Therefore, there are three prime numbers on a standard six-sided die.
To calculate the probability of getting a prime number, we divide the number of favorable outcomes (prime numbers) by the total number of possible outcomes.
Probability of getting a prime number = Number of prime numbers / Total number of possible outcomes
= 3 / 6
= 1/2
= 0.5
So, the probability of getting a prime number when casting a die is 1/2 or 0.5, which can also be written as 50%.
If a die is cast what is the probability of gatherings of getting a prime number
