Answer:


(3)/(6) or
(1)/(2) or even chance

Explanation:

  • When you roll a die from 1-6 , there are 6 possibilities of rolling a number because there are 6 sides on a single die. Each side has a number on it.
  • As the question is specifically asking for odd numbers, you need to eliminate every even number.
  • Then you're left with 1,3 and 5 which are all odd numbers. So there's a
    (3)/(6) chance (or
    (1)/(2) ) of rolling an odd number.
