8. An unbiased cubic die is thrown. Find the probability of getting (iii) a number divisible by 2, (iv) a number less than 4.
8. An unbiased cubic die is thrown. Find the probability of getting (iii) a number divisible by 2, (iv) a number less than 4.

(iii)

The probability that getting a number divisible by 2,

The number divisible by 2 in the die =2,4,6

Now, the number of favorable outcomes to the event getting a number divisible by 2=3

Thus,

P(getting a number divisible by 2) = Favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

=3/6

=1/2

(iv)

The probability that getting a number less than 4,

The number less than 4 in the die =1,2,3

Now, the number of favorable outcomes to the event getting a number less than 4=3

Thus,

P(getting a number divisible by 2) = Favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

=3/6

=1/2
