Determine the probability of rolling 3 or 6 when a cube is roll.

Solution:

A cube has 6 faces, which contains the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Since we are asked to find the probability of rolling 3 and 6, then we can represent it as.

= 2/6

= ⅓

= 0.3333 

Since we are given a decimal answer, in order to convert it into percentage, we multiply the decimal by 100. Hence, in converting a percentage into decimal, we divide the percentage by 100.

= 0.3333(100)

= 33.33%

Final answer:
The probability of rolling a 3 or 6 is 33.33%
