Q. work: 11.4 HW -HW Score: 27.59%,8 of 29Question 9, 11.4.3pointsPoints: 0 of 1SaveThe probability of rolling an even number on a 10 -sided die is □.(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
Identify Total Outcomes: First, identify the total number of outcomes when rolling a 10-sided die. Since the die has 10 sides, there are 10 possible outcomes.
Determine Favorable Outcomes: Next, determine the number of favorable outcomes for rolling an even number.The even numbers on a 10-sided die are 2,4,6,8, and 10. That gives us 5 even numbers.
Calculate Probability: Now, calculate the probability of rolling an even number.The probability is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes.So, the probability is 5 (favorable outcomes) / 10 (total outcomes).
Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction obtained in the previous step. 105 simplifies to 21.
