Mathematics

Answer:

Odds for = Odds against = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In a fair die, we have {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and $ n(S) = 6 $

{1, 4, 5} and {2, 3, 6} constitute the entire sample space.

So, Probability of getting a 1 or a 4 or a 5

= Probability of getting a 1 +

Probability of getting a 4 +

Probability of getting a 5

= $ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} $

=$ \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} $

Therefore, Odds for 1 or 4 or 5 = $ \frac{1}{2} $.

Since, Probability of getting a number between 1 and 6 is 1 and Probability of getting a number from 2 or 3 or 6 = $ \frac{1}{2} $, we have:

Probability of not getting a 1 or 4 or 5 = 1 - $ \frac{1}{2} $

= $ \frac{1}{2} $

Hence, odds for and odds against = $ \frac{1}{2} $
