Question

For one die, what is the sample space and its number of outcomes?

Options

• \(S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7\}\), with \(n(S) = 7\)

• \(S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\}\), with \(n(S) = 6\)

• \(S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}\), with \(n(S) = 5\)

• \(S = \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}\), with \(n(S) = 6\)

Answer 1

The possible outcomes of one die are the six numbers from 1 to 6. Therefore, \(n(S) = 6\).
