A die is rolled. Find the probability of the given event.
(a)The number showing is a 2;
The probability is : P(x = 2) = 1/6
---------------------------------------------
(b)The number showing is an even number;
The probability is : P(x = 2 or 4 or 6) = 3/6 = 1/2
------------------------------------------
(c)The number showing is greater than 3;
The probability is : P(x = 4 or 5 or 6) = 3/6 = 1/2
