Question

Compute the odds in favor of obtaining a number divisible by 5 in a single roll of a die.

Answer 1

Answer:

Odds in Favor = 1 / 5

Step-by-step explanation:

$odds \: in \: favour = \frac{ number \: of \: observation \: satisfying \: given \: condition \: }{number \: of \: observation \: not \: satisfying \: given \: condition}$

$odds = \frac{1(observation -5)}{5(observations - 1,2,3,4,and \: 6}$

Answer 2

Answer:

1/6 or 16.7% chance

Step-by-step explanation:

A die has 6 sides, and there is only one side with a number divisible by 5, which is the number 5.

So, the probability of rolling a number divisible by 5 is 1/6.

= 1/6 or 0.167
