Explanation

A standard die has 6 faces (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The odd numbers are 1, 3, 5. The probability is 3/6 = 1/2.

AI explanation

The sample space for tossing a single die contains six outcomes, numbered 1 through 6. The odd numbers among these are 1, 3 and 5, which gives 3 favorable outcomes. The probability of the upper face bearing an odd number is 3 divided by 6, which simplifies to 1 divided by 2.
