A six-sided die is rolled. What are the odds that a number greater than 4 is rolled?

Answer 1

There are six sides to the die. Therefore, you have 1/6 chance of rolling any given number. 5 and 6 are the only options which are greater than 4. Your chances of rolling each of those is 1/6. 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6.
