Here, Total outcome is the area of the rectangle and favourable outcome is area of the circle.

Area of the rectangle = l\times b = 3\times2 = 6\ m^2

Area of the circle = \pi r^2 = \pi \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{\pi}{4}\ m^2

\therefore P(die\ will\ land\ inside\ the\ hole) = \frac{Area\ of\ circle}{Total\ area}

= \frac{\frac{\pi}{4}}{6} = \frac{\pi}{24}
