A
1 out of 3
B
1 out of 6
с
3 out of 6
D
5 out of 6

Answer 1

C)
`P(E) = (3)/(6)`

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

`P(E) = (3)/(6)`

Explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that Mae has a number cube with 6 sides that are numbered 1 through 6.

n(S) = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,} = 6

Let 'E ' be the event of odd numbers

Mae will roll an odd number

n(E) = {1, 3, 5} = 3

Step(ii):-

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

`P(E) = (n(E))/(n(S)) = (3)/(6)`

`P(E) = (3)/(6)`
