Question

If you roll a six-sided dice, what is the probability of rolling an odd number?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator is the number of sides, in this case 6.

The numerator is how many occurrences within that number is desired outcome. In this case they want odd numbers, so in a six sided dice there are 3 odd numbers (1, 3, 5). So your probability is 3/6 or 1/2.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A six sided dice contains even numbers on three sides and odd numbers on remaining three sides.

Therefore,

Probability of rolling an odd number

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