Q79 of 116 Page 42

In question, state whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

In a throw of a dice, the probability of getting an even number is the same as that of getting an odd number.

True

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.


Hence, the statement is true.
