Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] +  [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

This is because there is only one "5" and one "6" in a dice. Moreover the total number of numbers in a dice are 6 so the denominator will be 6. Then when the word 'or' is present it means that both the probabilities must be added.

P (of rolling a 5 or 6 on a fair dice) = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] +  [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex] can be simplified further. Both 2 and 6 are factors of 2 so..

[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

P (of rolling a 5 or 6 on a fair dice) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
