In a single throw of a die, the probability of getting a composite number is :(a) 1/3(b) 1/2(c) 2/3(d) 5/6 |

Answer» Correct answer is (a) 1/3 On a through of a dice 6 possible outcomes are possible. There are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Among which only 4 and 6 are composite numbers i.e. two numbers are composite. Now from the definition of probability, the probability of getting a composite number on the throw of dice is 2/6 = 1/3. |
