Question

a fair six-sided die is rolled. what is the probability of not rolling an even number?

\\(p(\text{not even}) = ?\\%\\)

round your answer to the nearest whole percent.

Explanation:

Determine the sample space

$$ S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\}, \quad n(S) = 6 $$

Identify the favorable outcomes

$$ E = \{1, 3, 5\}, \quad n(E) = 3 $$

Calculate the probability as a percentage

$$ P(\text{not even}) = \frac{3}{6} = 0.5 = 50\% $$
