Question

If you roll a regular 6-sided cube, what is the probability of rolling an even number?

Answer 1

Probability of rolling an even number means the desired outcome is 2, 4, or 6. This is a mutually exclusive event, since we can't land on 2, 4, or 6 at the same time. Therefore, add the probabilities of each. 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 simplify to 1/2

Answer 2

i dont get it

Answer 3

to calculate the probability, you have to write a fraction with desired outcome/total possible outcomes

Answer 4

for the denominator, what are the total possible outcomes when rolling a die?

Answer 5

if we want an even number as our desired outcome, then there are only 3 possibilities of that happening (2, 4, or 6). Put that
3 over the total possible outcomes (6). 3/6 is your answer

Answer 6

3/6 can be reduced to 1/2

Answer 7

Do you get it now?
