A die is thrown. Find the probability of

getting a prime number


We know that,


Probability of occurrence of an event


As 2, 3, 5 are prime numbers up to 6, so the desired outcomes are 2, 3, 5, and total outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6


Therefore, total no.of outcomes are 6, and total no.of desired outcomes are 3


Probability of getting a prime number



Conclusion: Probability of getting a prime number when a die is thrown is
