Explanation

When rolling a standard 6-sided die, the sample space S consists of all possible faces numbered 1 through 6, which is S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. The total number of possible outcomes, known as the sample size n(S), is 6.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Identify the sample space for rolling a 6-sided die, which is S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

  2. Step 2: Count the elements in the sample space to find the sample size n(S), which is 6.
