Scenario: Considering the following two events, solve for P(A).
- Event A: Roll a number greater than 4
- Event B: Roll an odd number
P(A) = # of outcomes in A / # of all potential outcomes
What is the sample space (S) for all outcomes on a six-sided die?
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
P(A) = {5, 6} / {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
P(A) = 2 / 6
P(A) = 1/3
Answer: The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 is 1/3.
