Experiment 4: Choose a number at random from 1 to 5. What is the probability of each outcome? What is the probability that the number chosen is even? What is the probability that the number chosen is odd?
Outcomes: The possible outcomes of this experiment are 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Probabilities:
P(1) = # of ways to choose a 1 = 1
total # of numbers 5
P(2) = # of ways to choose a 2 = 1
total # of numbers 5
P(3) = # of ways to choose a 3 = 1
total # of numbers 5
P(4) = # of ways to choose a 4 = 1
total # of numbers 5
P(5) = # of ways to choose a 5 = 1
total # of numbers 5
P(even) = # of ways to choose an even number = 2
total # of numbers 5
P(odd) = # of ways to choose an odd number = 3
total # of numbers 5
