Suppose you roll a single die. Find the number of elements in the event space for the rolling an even number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2,4,6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks right to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a single die has the values 1 through 6, Sample Space = \[S={1,2,3,4,5,6}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now, how many values in S are even?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all right, there 6 possible values, so 3 of those 6 are even

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks as though this case is closed now...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i put 3/6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the questions asks only to find the number of elements, for a complete answer you could put there are 3 such numbers, being {2, 4, 6} representing 3/6 of the total outcomes
