- The following problem is from both the 2012 CEMC Gauss (Grade 8) #2 and 2012 CEMC Gauss (Grade 7) #3, so both problems redirect to this page.
Problem
A six-sided die has the numbers one to six on its sides. What is the probability of rolling a five?
Solution
numbers can be rolled on the die, and there is only 
way to roll a five, so the probability is
