A) 5/16
B) 3/8
C) 7/16
D) 1/16

Answer:
6/16
Step-by-step explanation:
On a 16 sided die there would be number as follows :
1,2,3,.. 16 The prime number out in this set of numbers are
2,3,5,7,11, and 13
There are 6 prime number so the probability of rolling a prime number is
6/16
Step-by-step explanation:
If the given dice is 16-sided, then it would contain following numbers:-
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16
We know that, the numbers which aren't divisible by any numbers except itself and 1 are prime numbers.
Out of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16
the prime numbers are as follow:-
2,3,5,7,11,13
Here, the number of prime numbers are 6,
Therefore, the probability of rolling a prime number when the dice is rolled is
Hence, option B. is the correct answer.
