Dice 1 Solution

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Matene and Jon are playing with a dice. Matene says that he thinks the next roll will be less than 3. Jon says that he thinks it will be an even number. Who is more likely to be right?

Solution:

There are two ways that Matene can be right (1 or 2). There are three ways that Jon can be right (2, 4, or 6). So it is more likely that Jon will be right.
