A die is thrown once. Find the probability of gettings ‘a number divisible by 2.’

Solution

If a die is thrown once, then S = {1,2,3,4,5,6} i.e.    n( s) = 6
Let A be the favourable outcomes of setting number divisible by 2. then
A = {2,4,5} i.e.    n(A) = 3
Therefore,  P(A) = fraction numerator straight n left parenthesis straight A right parenthesis over denominator straight n left parenthesis straight S right parenthesis end fraction equals 3 over 6 equals 1 half.
