The dice was rolled once. what is the probability that the number of points dropped is even?

A – an even number of points will be dropped.

The probability of event A is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

Let’s find the number of favorable outcomes:

1) 2 points will be dropped;

2) 4 points will be dropped;

3) 6 points will be dropped.

Only 3 favorable outcomes.

Let’s find the probability:

P (A) = 3/6 = 1/2 = 0.5.

Let’s express the probability as a percentage:

0.5 × 100% = 50%.

Answer: the probability that an even number of points will be dropped is 0.5 (50%).
