An unbiased die is rolled. Find the probability of getting a multiple of 2.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Probability = favourable outcomes ÷ all possible outcomes. An unbiased die has 6 faces, numbered 1 to 6, and each is equally likely to come up.
Multiples of 2 on a die: 2, 4 and 6, that is 3 favourable outcomes out of 6
Probability \(\displaystyle=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}\)
