On a standard six-sided die, there are three: 2, 4 and 6.
If you mean a regular six-sided die, there are 3: 2,3 and 5. Some people would argue that 1 is a prime number, but in fact 1 is not, as it only has one natural number divisor, while prime numbers have exactly two distinct natural number divisors.
Since there are 3 prime numbers, 13, 17, and 19, in the range 12 to 19, the probability of throwing a prime number on a fair eight sided die numbered 12 to 19 is 3 in 8.
To solve this problem you: 1) Find all factors of 24 (there are 6 factors- 1,24,6,4,2,12) 2) You elemenate all numbers that are not on a six sided die (24,12) 3) Now use probability. The die is numbered 1-6 and you have numbers 1,2,4 and 6 which makes 4 out of 6. 4) This last step I can't show you, so I'll have to explain. You set up a proportion box. Write the 4 over the 6 on one side and next to the 6 write the 96. Over the 96 write N, which will represent the answer to your equation. Then multiply 4 times 96 and divide the product by 6. If you followed these steps you should get an answer of 64.
The numbers on the typical die are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.Unity: 1Prime numbers: 2, 3, and 5Composite numbers: 4 and 6
