Question

A dice is thrown once. Find the probability of getting an odd number.

• A. $\frac{1}{3}$
• B. $\frac{1}{2}$
• C. $\frac{1}{4}$
• D. $\frac{1}{5}$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$\frac{1}{2}$

Sample space $S=1,2,3,4,5,6$
Total number of events $=6$
an odd number $=1,3,5$
$\therefore$ P (an odd number) $=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$
