Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

A standard die has 6 faces including the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

If we are trying to find the probability that the number rolled is greater than 5, we have to first find how many number are greater than 5. We can see that 6 is the only number greater.

Now we have to find the total amount of possiblities. There are 6 numbers so the total possiblities is 6.

Now we divide the working numbers over the total.

1/6 is the probability that it will roll a number greater than 5.

Answer: 1/6

Explanation: There is 6 sides in a standard die, the equation is asking for a number greater than 5, which the only possible number greater than 5 is 6. So the probability of rolling any number on a standard die is 1/6 since there is 6 sides.
