    Question



    If a dice is thrown once, then the probability of getting a number greater than 6 is:

    A.

    0

    B.

    1/6

    C.

    1

    D.

    2/6

    Correct option is A


    Understanding the Problem:
    A standard die has 6 faces, numbered from 1 to 6.
    When the die is thrown, the possible outcomes are: {1,2,3,4,5,6}\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\}{1,2,3,4,5,6}.
    The question asks for the probability of getting a number greater than 6.
    Analyzing the Event:
    There is no number greater than 6 on a standard die.
    Hence, the favorable outcomes are zero.
    Probability Formula: The probability of an event is given by-
    P(Event)= Number of favorable outcomes/ Total number of outcomes
    P(Number > 6)=0/6​ = 0
