No.
A die gives 1/6
A lottery ticket changes as numbers are revealed (you cannot have the same number pulled twice). So 1/x * 1/x-1 * 1/x-2 .... and so on. It ends up a very slim chance.

Yes, you either win or you don't, but those outcomes don't have an equal probability of being true. One is far more likely than the other.

It's not 50%. The odds are against you.

Let's assume a million people buy single tickets for a lottery. The chance of you having a winning ticket is 1/1000000. When we're talking about winning we're talking about probability, not Boolean (true or false) situations.

It works based on the amount of something there is.
For instance say you have two cards, one is a queen and one is a king.
You have a 50% chance of winning.
The more of something there is, the less of a chance that you get the correct item, so if there millions of lottery tickets and only one winner...that's a lot less than 50%

Math is a Jewish invention. Math doesn't actually exist or make any sense.
