Answer:
The probabilities for 1 thru 5 must be equal and the total probability must be one so the individual probabilities must be:
1 - 1/7
2 - 1/7
3 - 1/7
4 - 1/7
5 - 1/7
6 - 2/7
The numbers 1, 3, and 5 are odd so the probability of getting an odd nmber
is 3/7 whereas the probability of an even number would b 4/7
