Question

A die is rolled 50 times. An even number was obtained 49 times. What is the empirical probability of getting an even number?

• A. $\frac{1}{50}$
• B. $\frac{49}{50}$
• C. $\frac{48}{50}$
• D. 1

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{49}{50}$

Total no. of trials ( no. of times die is rolled )= 50
Number of times in which the event happened = 49

$\text{Experimental probability}$
$=\frac{\text{No. of times in which event happened}}{\text{total no. of trials}}$

=$\frac{49}{50}$
