Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

probability = favorable events / total num of events

here total num of events is 3 and favorable is 1 since there is only one odd number.

therefore, p(odd) = 1/3

Answer:


\huge\boxed{\bf\:(1)/(3)=0.33}

Explanation:

Odd numbers are numbers that end with the digits
\rightarrow 1,3,5,7,9, whereas even numbers are numbers that end with the digits
\rightarrow 0,2,4,6,8.

Here, we can see that,

  • 2 & 4 = even numbers = 2 even number cards
  • 3 = odd number = 1 odd number card
  • 3 = Total number of cards.

Therefore,

Probability of getting an odd number (3) card

= Number of odd number cards / Total number of cards

= ⅓ = 0.33
