The odds of rolling a 1 on a standard die are given as 1:5. This means that for every 1 time you roll a 1, there are 5 times you roll something else.

To convert odds to probability, you use the formula:

\[\text { Probability} = \frac { \text { Number of favorable outcomes} } { \text { Total number of outcomes} } \]

In this case, the number of favorable outcomes (rolling a 1) is 1, and the total number of outcomes is the sum of the favorable and unfavorable outcomes:

\[\text { Total number of outcomes} = 1 + 5 = 6\]

So, the probability \(P\) of rolling a 1 is:

\[P( \text { rolling a 1} ) = \frac { 1} { 6} \]

Therefore, the probability of getting a 1 upon rolling a die is \(\frac { 1} { 6} \) or approximately 0.1667 (16.67%).

Supplemental Knowledge

To transform Chart 1 into Chart 2 in a spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets, you would need to use several formatting tools. Here are the key tools and steps involved:

1. Percentage Format:

- Convert the decimal values in Chart 1 to percentage format. This can be done by selecting the cells and applying the percentage format, which typically multiplies the value by 100 and adds a percent sign (%).

2. Number Formatting:

- Ensure that the numbers are displayed without any decimal places if they are not needed. This can be adjusted in the number formatting options.

3. Bold Text:

- Make the header "Sales Growth" bold to match the formatting in Chart 2.

4. Alignment:

- Ensure that both charts have consistent alignment for readability, though this is less critical than the other formatting changes.
