Question

A number is chosen at random from 1 to 50. Find the probability of selecting an even number.

Answer 1

Out of 50 numbers, 25 are going to be odd and 25 are going to even.

So, this means that you have a half chance.

Write a fraction:

25/50

Simplify:

25/50 -> 1/2

Therefore, the probability is 1/2.

Best of Luck!
