What is the probability of landing on an even number? (Write your final answer as a percentage.)
To find the probability of landing on an even number, we need to determine the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes
To find the probability of landing on an even number, we need to determine the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes.
In this case, we assume that we are rolling a fair six-sided die. The possible outcomes are numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Out of these numbers, the even numbers are 2, 4, and 6, so there are 3 favorable outcomes.
The total number of possible outcomes is 6.
To find the probability, we divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes:
Probability = (number of favorable outcomes) / (total number of possible outcomes)
Probability = 3 / 6
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
Probability = 1 / 2
To express the probability as a percentage, we multiply the probability by 100:
Probability (as a percentage) = (1 / 2) * 100
Probability (as a percentage) = 50%
So, the probability of landing on an even number is 50%.
