A dice is rolled 600 times and the occurrence of the outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are given below: Outcome 1 2 3 4 5 6 Frequency 200 30 120 100 50 100 The probability of getting a prime number is `1/3\ ` (b) `2/3` (c) `(49)/(60)` (d) `(39)/(125)`

Explanation

Given:

Total number of trials `=600`

No. of getting prime number i.e `2,3,5=30+120+50=200`

P(getting a prime number)`=200/600`

`=2/6`

`=1/3`

Hence, the probability of getting a prime number is `1/3`
Option (A) is correct.
