A number from the list {2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20} is to be picked at random. What is the probability of getting an even number? Write your answer in the simplest form of fraction. Please help
There are a total of 10 numbers in the list and 5 of them are even (2, 4, 10, 12, 18).
Therefore, the probability of getting an even number is 5/10 which simplifies to 1/2.
So, the probability of getting an even number is 1/2.
Your wrong
I apologize for the mistake in my response. Let me correct it.
There are a total of 10 numbers in the list, and out of those, 5 numbers are even (2, 4, 10, 12, 18).
So, the probability of picking an even number is \(\frac{5}{10}\) which simplifies to \(\frac{1}{2}\).
Therefore, the correct probability of getting an even number is \(\frac{1}{2}\). Thank you for pointing out the error.
