Question:
A die is thrown once. What is the probability of getting an odd number?
Solution:
GIVEN: A dice is thrown once
TO FIND: Probability of getting an odd number.
Total number on a dice is 6.
Odd numbers on a dice are 1, 3 and 5
Total number of odd numbers on dice is 3
We know that PROBABILITY = 
Hence probability of an odd number = 
Hence probability of getting an odd number =
