What is the probability of rolling an odd number with a dice?
The probability for a normal die is 1/2.
If you roll four fair dice what is the probability the sum will be an odd number?
The probability is 1/2.
What is the probability of rolling a odd number on a dice?
Three out of six which reduces to one half.
Rolling an even number from two dice?
The two dice can be (odd, odd), (odd, even), (even, odd), or (even, even). Thus the probability of two dice totaling an even number is 2*(1/2)*(1/2) = 1/2. 50/50
Rolling three dice what is the probability of rolling an odd number?
The probability that, when rolling three dice none will come up odd is broken down by the probability that on odd roll will occur as an independent event. Rolling the first die has a probability of 3/6 that it will be odd. Rolling the second has the probability of 3/6 that it will be odd. Rolling the third has a probability of 3/6 will be odd. Rolling three and coming up with odd is really the probability that no odd numbers occurred, so therefore an even number DID happen (3/6), and an even number DID happen (3/6), and an even number DID happen (3/6). That's really just 1 - (3/6^3) or simplified 1 - (1/2^3). So therefore the probability that an odd number occurred in 3 die rolls is about 87.5%.
