Answer

When a dice is thrown, the possible outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Even no. greater than 4 is 6.

∴ No. of favourable outcomes = 1

P(getting an even number greater than 4)

= No. of favourable outcomesTotal no. of possible outcomes=16\dfrac{\text{No. of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total no. of possible outcomes}} = \dfrac{1}{6}.

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.
