A textbook has `428` numbered pages, starting with 1.

You are equally likely to stop on any of the pages if you flip through the book randomly.



If you repeat this experiment `50` times, about how many times do you expect to turn to an even-numbered page?

You would expect to land on an even numbered page 25 times because there is an equal number of odd and even pages.
