Answer:

1 in 2

Explanation:

The possible whole numbers between 7 and 14 are 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14.

There are 4 even numbers and 4 odd numbers in this set. Therefore half of the time an even number will be picked and half of the time an odd number will be picked. This is a "50/50" scenario. HTH.
