a six-sided cube is rolled. find the probability of P(4)
i think it is 4/6 or 2/3
so it 1/5 =0.222
No that is wrong. The probability when rolling a 6 sided cube and landing on one number is what you are trying to figure out. Since you role a cube, you only have the ability to land on one number at a time. The question is what is the probability of landing on a 4...So... try once more
so is it 1/4
There are 6 sides, not 4
Makeeda, I don't know what kind of game you're playing. But no matter how much we try to help you, you don't seem to understand.
Do you understand the question?
You have six equally possible results.
One of them is correct.
In other words one out of six.
no i don't understand it please help
Here's a picture of a number cube. It has six sides. On each side is a number -- either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

To find the probability of rolling a specific number on a six-sided cube, you need to determine the number of favorable outcomes (rolling a 4) and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes (rolling any number from 1 to 6).
In this case, the favorable outcome is rolling a 4. There is only one way to roll a 4 on a six-sided cube.
The total number of possible outcomes is 6 since there are six sides on the cube.
Therefore, the probability of rolling a 4 is 1/6 or approximately 0.167.
