Suppose you roll a fair, six-sided number cube.

Question

List the sample space.
List one possible event.
Calculate the probability of that event.

Answer 1

The sample space (possible outcomes) is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. There is 6 possible outcomes.

A possible event is getting 3.
There is 1 favorable outcome of getting 3 in the sample space.
1/6 is the probability as a fraction.

Divide the numerator by the denominator. 1 ÷ 6 = 0.17 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
0.17 × 100 = 17 %

So, the probability of getting a 3 is 1/6, or 17 %.
