Classical Method Example

Using the classical method, determine the probability of rolling an odd number with a single die.

Roll a single die and observe the numerical result. Therefore, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Let E be the event that the die rolled is odd.

Therefore, E = {1, 3, 5}.

`P(E)= (n(E))/(n(S))=3/6 or 1/2`
