To solve the problem step by step, we will first identify the sample space of a fair die, and then calculate the probabilities for the specified events. ### Step 1: Identify the Sample Space A fair die has 6 faces, numbered from 1 to 6. Therefore, the sample space (S) can be listed as: \[ S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Probability of a Number Less Than 3 To find the probability of rolling a number less than 3, we identify the favorable outcomes: ...
