What is the probability of having an even number in a single toss of a fair die?
Answer Details
In a single toss of a fair die, there are six possible outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Out of these outcomes, three of them (2, 4, and 6) are even numbers. Therefore, the probability of getting an even number in a single toss of a fair die is 3 out of 6 or 1 out of 2. This can be expressed as a fraction of 1/2 or a decimal of 0.5. So, the correct answer is 1/2.
