  2. 23\dfrac{2}{3}

  3. 13\dfrac{1}{3}

  4. 12\dfrac{1}{2}

Answer

When a die is thrown the sample space is,

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

Let A be the event of getting an even prime number,

∴ A = {2}.

Hence, the no. of favourable outcomes to A = 1.

∴ P(A) = 16.\dfrac{1}{6}.

Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.
