AI explanation

When a standard six-sided die is thrown, the possible outcomes are the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The favorable outcomes for this event are the even numbers in this set, which are 2, 4, and 6. Using the classical probability formula of favorable outcomes divided by total outcomes, we get 3 divided by 6, which simplifies to 1/2.
