A die is rolled three times.The probability that exactly one one odd number turns up among the three out comes is? option- 1/2 ,3/8,18,1/6

• Each time, probability of getting odd or even number is same , i.e. 1/2.
  
  Then possible combination of three throws are
  OOO
  OOE
  OEO
  OEE
  EOO
  EOE
  EEO
  EEE
  
  out of these 8 possible outcomes, only three (3) are desirable ..OEE,EOE,EEO
  
  so probability of getting exactly one odd number = 3/8

  The answer is 3/8 ,I know and can prove .But just wanted to know other view before I reveal,how?

• 1/2.die is rolled 3 times means 3*6=18 is the denominator.number of odd numbers in the die=3.so,there are 3*3 chances of obtaining the odd number.hence the answer is 1/2

• the position is selected as 3C1
  now 3c1*3/6*3/6*3/6=3/8
