The probability of drawing an odd-numbered die from a bag containing dice numbered 1 to 20 is 10 out of 20, which simplifies to 0.5 or 50%.

The question concerns the probability of drawing an odd-numbered die from a bag containing dice numbered from 1 to 20.

To find this probability, one needs to calculate the ratio of the number of odd-numbered dice to the total number of dice in the bag.

To begin with, we identify the total number of possible outcomes, which is 20, as there are dice numbered 1 through 20.

Next, we determine the number of favorable outcomes, which in this case are the odd-numbered dice: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, and 19, giving us 10 odd numbers in total.

The probability of drawing an odd-numbered die is then the number of odd-numbered dice divided by the total number of dice.

Therefore, the probability of drawing an odd-numbered die is 10 out of 20, or 1/2, which simplifies to 0.5 or 50%.
