Question

In a throw of a dice, the probability of getting an even number is the same as that of getting an odd number.

Options

• True

• False

Answer 1

This statement is True.

Explanation:

Even numbers on a dice are 2, 4 and 6

⇒ Number of even numbers on a dice = 3

⇒ Number of favourable outcomes for even numbers = 3

Odd numbers on a dice are 1, 3 and 5

⇒ Number of odd numbers on a dice = 3

⇒ Number of favourable outcomes for odd numbers = 3

Since the number of outcomes is same, therefore probability would be same too.
