Question

The probability of getting a number divisible by 2 in 1 throw of a die is 2/5.​

Answer 1

Answer:

False

The probability of getting a number divisible by 2 in 1 throw of a die is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Probability of getting a number divisible by 2

That means,

The number should be an even number.

Total Numbers in a Die = 6

Total Even numbers in a Die = 3

Probability = Total Numbers in a Die/Total Even Numbers in a Die

Probability = 3/6

Probability =1/2

Answer 2

SOLUTION

TO CHECK

True / False below statement

The probability of getting a number divisible by 2 in 1 throw of a die is 2/5.

EVALUATION

A die is thrown once

So possible outcomes = { 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 }

So the total number of possible outcomes = 6

Let A be the event that of getting a number divisible by 2

Now the number divisible by 2 are 2 , 4 , 6

So the total number of possible outcomes for the event A is 3

Hence the required probability

= P(A)

$\sf{ = \dfrac{3}{6} }$

$\sf{ = \dfrac{1}{2} }$

FINAL ANSWER

Hence the statement is FALSE
