The composite numbers are 4 and 6; that is 2/6 of the numbers available. Therefore the odds on rolling such a number are "two out of 6" = 1/3 = 33.333%
The 3 in that answer is recurring.
Since the total of all probabilities which might occur in one event is 1.0 or 1 or 100%, it follows that the probability of not throwing a composite number is 4/6 = 2/3 = 66.66666666666666(recurring)%

When a 9 fair of die is thrown what is the probability of getting the number 3?
3 out of 9
When a fair die is thrown what is the probability of getting the number 3?
A die normally has 6 sides numbered 1 through 6. The probability of you landing on ANY number is 1:6, or you have a 1 in 6 chance of landing a 3.
When a six-sided die is thrown what is the probability of getting a 1?
There is a one out of six chance.
When a Die is thrown then the probability of an event getting out-comes is not a prime number is what?
When a Die is thrown then the probability of an event getting out-comes is not a prime number is 3/6. The possible prime numbers would be 2, 3, or 5. The possible outcomes are 1, 2,3,4,5 and 6. So 1,4 and 6 are not primes and there are 3 numbers out of 6 possible so that is 3/6 or p=.5
What is the probability of getting 4 dots on top when a die is thrown once?
1in 6 chance
What is the probability of getting number 4 if die is thrown?
1 out of 6
When a 9 fair of die is thrown what is the probability of getting the number 3?

What is the probability of getting a sum of 14 if four dices thrown together?
The probability is 146/1296 = 0.1127
Two dice are thrown. What is the probability of getting the same number?
The first dice can show any number. However the second dice has a 1 in 6 chance of being the same as the first. Hence the probability of getting two numbers the same is 1/6.
When a fair die is thrown what is the probability of getting the number 3?
A die normally has 6 sides numbered 1 through 6. The probability of you landing on ANY number is 1:6, or you have a 1 in 6 chance of landing a 3.
Two dices are thrown simultaneously what is the probability that we get an even number on 1 of the dice?
If two dice (not dices!) are thrown then the probability that you get an even number on one die is 27/36 = 3/4
