Hello Student,
Please find answer to your question below

Sample space, S is
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
(i) Let E be the event of occuring a number on die greater than 2
E = {3, 4, 5, 6}
Probability = 4/6 = 2/3

(ii) Let E be the event of occuring odd number on die
E = {1, 3, 5}
Probability = 3/6 = 1/2

no, i asked whether they are independent and how can this happen that the two events in single dice is independent

Two events are independent if the occurence of one event does not effect the probability of other.
Lets say 1st event to be A and 2nd to be B. Let C to be intersection of A and B. A and B are independent if
P(C) = P(A)P(B)
C = {3, 5}
P(C) = 2/6 = 1/3
P(A)P(B) = 2/3 . ½ = 1/3
Hence, A & B are independent.
