(C) In the experiment of throwing a fair die,the possible equally likely outcomes are $1, 2, 3, 4, 5,$ and $6.$Let event $A$ be the event of 'getting $2$ on the die.' Then,the number of outcomes favourable to $A$ is only $1.$$	herefore P(A) = 	ext{P(getting } 2 	ext{ on the die)}$$= \frac{	ext{Number of outcomes favourable to } A}{	ext{Number of all possible outcomes}}$$= \frac{1}{6}$Thus,the probability of getting number $2$ on the die is $\frac{1}{6}$.

Find the probability of getting number $2$ on a die when a fair die is thrown.
