Correct option is: C) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Possible outcomes are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Favourable outcomes are {2, 4, 6}
\(\therefore\) Total possible outcomes = 6
and total favourable outcomes = 3
\(\therefore\) Required probability = \(\frac 36 = \frac 12\)
Hence, the probability of getting an even number when a dice is rolled is \(\frac{1}{2}\).
