Question:
A die is thrown once. Find the probability of getting a number less than 3.
Solution:
GIVEN: A dice is thrown once
TO FIND: Probability of getting a number less than 3
Total number on a dice is 6.
Number less than 3 are1 and 2
Total number of numbers less than 3 is 2
We know that PROBABILITY = 
Hence probability of getting a number less than 3 is equal to 
Hence probability of getting a number less than 3 =
