Total outcomes = 6

6.(i) (a) prime numbers = 2,3,5 = 3 numbers

          probability of prime number

               =\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

        (b) non prime numbers = 1,4,6 = 3 numbers

         probability of non prime number

               =\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

  (ii) (a) number greater than 5 = 6  = 1 number only

    probability of getting number greater than 5

                  =\frac{1}{6}

   (b) number not greater than 5 = 1,2,3,4,5 = 5 numbers.
