Solution
dice is thrown once
TO FIND: Probability of getting a number greater than 2.
Total number on a dice is 6.
Number greater than 2 is 3, 4, 5 and 6
Total number greater than 2 is 4
`"We know that PROBABILITY" = "Number of favourable event"/"Total number of event"`
Hence probability of getting a number greater than 2 is equal to `4/6=2/3`
