A twelve-sided die with sides labeled 1 through 12 will be rolled once. Each number is equally likely to be rolled. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 4?

The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 numbers that are > 4 and ≤ 12

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

So put a fraction of the desired process by the total outcome.

8/12 = 2/3

Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = desired number of outcome/possible outcome

If you roll a single die there are 12 possible outcomes (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,13), 8 of these numbers are greater than 4.

In a single roll the probability of getting a number greater than 4 is 8/12 = 2/3
