Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
On a 6-sided number cube, the probability that you roll a 2 is 1/6,
(Remember that the probability equals: Number of positive outcomes/ number of possible outcomes) So you have 1 positive outcome (to roll a 2) among 6 possible outcomes.
This same thinking applies for the case of rolling a 3 and the probability is 1/6.
Now you want to roll either a 2 or 3. In probability, when we get an "or" this means that we have to sum up our probabilities.
Thus, the P(2 or 3) = [tex]P(2)+P(3)= \frac{1}{6}+ \frac{1}{6} =\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Thus the probability of rolling a 2 or 3 is 1/3
