Ahmed rolled a standard 6-sided dice a number of times. He noticed after numerous rolls that the 5 and 6 were twice as likely to occur than any of the other numbers.

\(\text{5 and 6 twice as likely}\)
\(\longrightarrow\ \text{Spinner has 6 + 2 sections}\)
\(\therefore\ \text{5 and 6 take up 2 sections each and 1, 2, 3 and 4 one section each.}\)
