Describe events as subsets of a sample space using unions, intersections, and complements.
List the outcomes that belong to an event in a sample space
Problem
In the sample space \({1,2,3,4,5,6}\), what outcomes are in the event rolling an even number?
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
An event is the subset of sample-space outcomes satisfying its defining condition. We’ll retain the complete sample space, translate even into divisibility by two, test every listed outcome, and write only the members that pass the condition as a set.
