A die is thrown once. Find the probability of getting

(i) A prime number;

(ii) A number lying between 2 and 6;

(iii) An odd number

The possible outcomes when a dice is thrown = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Number of possible outcomes of a dice = 6

(i) Prime numbers on a dice are 2, 3, and 5.

Total prime numbers on a dice = 3

Probability of obtaining a prime number =

=

(ii) Numbers lying between 2 and 6 = 3, 4, 5

Total numbers lying between 2 and 6 = 3

Probability of obtaining a number that lies between 2 and 6 =

=

(iii) Odd numbers on a dice = 1, 3, and 5

Total odd numbers on a dice = 3

Probability of obtaining an odd number =

=
