Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The probability of rolling a 3 or a 6 on a fair die is the sum of the probabilities of each individual event, since they are mutually exclusive. Each side of a die has a probability of 1/6, so the probability of rolling a 3 or a 6 is 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6, which simplifies to 1/3.
