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
Solution
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.
