In a single throw of a die, what is the probability of getting a number greater than 4? Choose one
A) 1/2  B) 1/3  C) 2/3  D) 1/4  E) None
Solution   When a die is thrown, we have S= {1,2,3,4,5,6}.   Let E = event of getting a number greater than 4= {5, 6}.   •P(E)= n(E) / n(S)   = 2/6   = 1/3.   Answer 1/3
