Answer:

(a)\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) 17:15

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The roulette wheel has 32 slots (inclusive of 0 and 00)

Number of Odd Numbers between 1 to 30 =15

Since you are placing a bet that the outcome is an odd number.

P(\text{Winning})=\dfrac{\text{Number of Odd Numbers}}{\text{Total Number of Slots}} \\=\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) The actual odds against​ winning

\text{Actual Odds against Winning})=\dfrac{32-15}{15}\\=\dfrac{17}{15}

Therefore, the actual odds against​ winning are 17:15
