Final answer:

The probability of rolling an odd number on a six-sided die is 50%, since there are three odd numbers (1, 3, 5) out of six possible outcomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the probability of rolling an odd number on a six-sided die. A die has six faces with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Out of these six numbers, three are odd: 1, 3, and 5. To find the probability of rolling an odd number, we divide the number of odd outcomes by the total number of outcomes.

Probability of rolling an odd number = (Number of odd outcomes) / (Total number of outcomes) = 3/6 = 1/2

We can convert this fraction to a percentage to get the answer. 1/2 as a percentage is 50%.

Therefore, the probability of rolling an odd number on a six-sided die is 50%.
