Harrison White · Answer 1

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 50 numbers between 1 and 50

There are 25 even numbers

P (even) = number of even numbers / total numbers

25/50

1/2

Ivy Blanchard · Answer 2

Out of 50 numbers, 25 are going to be odd and 25 are going to even.

So, this means that you have a half chance.

Write a fraction:

25/50

Simplify:

25/50 - > 1/2

Therefore, the probability is 1/2.

Best of Luck!
