Question

A number cube labeled one throughı six is rolled. Find each probability in simplest form. A number cube is rolled. Find the probability of not getting an even number a. 1/2b. 1/3c. 2/3d. 1

Answer 1

Given:

A number cube is rolled.

Required: Probability of not getting an even number

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the sample space and E be the event "Not getting an even number". Then

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and E = {1, 3, 5}

The required probability is

`\begin{gathered} P(E)=(n(E))/(n(S)) \\ =(3)/(6) \\ =(1)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Option a is correct.

Final Answer: Probability of not getting an even number is 1/2.
