what is the chance that an odd number will appear when a die is tossed?

I need solution or explanation!​


Sagot :

Answer:

12

∴ The probability of getting an odd number when a die is thrown is 12 or 0.5.

Answer:

The probability when rolling a regular six-sided dice that the score is an odd number is three-sixths or three out of six.

For any problem like this you want to list the full set of possibilities, in this case: {1,2,3,4,5,6}. Then list the desired elements that form the subset of values your question requires, in this case: the odd numbers {1,3,5}. Count ’em up, and divide the subset count by the total count:

Prob(value in subset)=

Number of Elements in SubsetTotal/ Number of Elements

N(A)=3

N(S)=6

hence probability is 3/6 = 1/2
