Considering the rolling of a single die, let E be the event of the
face showing up a prime number. Can you say the event has occurred if the outcome is
a) 1
b) 2
Sol:
The sample space, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
By definition 1 is not a prime number where as 2 is a prime number.
Hence, the different possibilities of number being prime, E = {2, 3, 5}
