Question

Compute the probability of tossing a six-sided die and getting an even number

Answer 1

sixe sided die so number of possible outcome is=6

And a die with even number is (2,4,6)

so number of favorable outcome is:3

then probability is:

$\begin{gathered} \text{probability}=\frac{favorable-outcom\text{ }}{\text{total outcom}} \\ =\frac{3}{6} \\ =\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}$

so probability is half.
