Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

On normal six-sided die, there are the numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The odd numbers are 1, 3, and 5.

There is a
(1)/(6) chance that you will roll any number specifically. Since you stated 3 numbers, the probability that you will roll any of those three numbers is
(3)/(6), which is equivalent to
(1)/(2).

Hi

on a regular dice you have 3 even number : 2 ;4;6

3 odd number : 1;3;5

so probability to have an odd number is : 3/6 = 1/2
