Respuesta :

Explanation:

We have these numbers: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}. That's 10 numbers

The odd numbers are: {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}. That's 5 numbers.

The probability of selecting an odd number is:

[tex]P(\text{odd)}=\frac{\text{ \# odd numbers}}{\text{ \# total numbers}}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

B. 1/2
