A single die is rolled. The probability of getting 1 or an even number is

  • A.1/6
  • B.4/6
  • C.5/6
  • D.3/6

Answer: B

The favourable outcomes are 1 together with the even numbers 2, 4 and 6.

\[ \{1, 2, 4, 6\} \rightarrow 4 \text{ outcomes} \]

\[ P = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} \]

1 is odd, so it does not overlap with the even numbers and nothing has to be subtracted - counting only three outcomes would leave 1 out.
