Each face of a fair 14-sided die is labeled with a number from 1 through 14, with a different number appearing on each face. If the die is rolled one time, what is the probability of rolling a 2?

Question

Accepted Answer

Choice A is correct. The total number of possible outcomes for rolling a fair 14-sided die is 14. The number of possible outcomes for rolling a 2 is 1. The probability of rolling a 2 is the number of possible outcomes for rolling a 2 divided by the total number of possible outcomes, or 1 ⁄ 14 . Choice B is incorrect. This is the probability of rolling a number no greater than 2. Choice C is incorrect. This is the probability of rolling a number greater than 2. Choice D is incorrect. This is the probability of rolling a number other than 2.
