Concept explainers
The probability of finding a number which is divisible by 2 when the die is rolled.
Answer to Problem 59PR
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Total number of faces of a die
Formula used:
Probability (P) =
Calculation:
Total number of events,
Possible events,
A die has 6 faces which have 1 to 6 numbers on it. From 1 to 6, only 2, 4 and 6 are divisible by 2. So, Possible events is 3.
By the probability formula,
Conclusion:
Hence, the probability of finding a number which is divisible by 2 when the die is rolled is 0.2.
