Question

A die is thrown once. Find the probability of getting a number less than 3. 

Answer 1

A dice is thrown once

TO FIND: Probability of getting a number less than 3

Total number on a dice is 6.

Number less than 3 are1 and 2

Total number of numbers less than 3 is 2

`"We know that PROBABILITY" ="Number of favourable event" /"Total number of event"`

`"Hence probability of getting a number less than 3 is equal to"=2/6=1/3` 

`"Hence probability of getting a number less than"=3=1/3`
