A standard die has 6 possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Prime numbers on the face of die are 2, 3, 5. \n" ); document.write( " 1 is also a possible outcome. There are four favorable outcomes: 1, 2, 3, and 5.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Probability = (Number of Favorable Outcomes) / (Total Number of Possible Outcomes)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Probability = 4 / 6 = 2/3\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Probability of rolling a 1 or a prime number on a standard die is 2/3, \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
