Problem 4

To solve the problem of finding the probability of drawing a card with an even number from the given set of cards, we proceed as follows:

Step 1: Identify the total number of cards. Since there are 6 cards in total, we denote this as $N_{\text{total}} = 6$.

Step 2: Determine the number of cards that have an even number. By examining the numbers "$1921$", "$1994$", "$1935$", "$1949$", "$1978$", and "$1980$", we find that there are 3 even numbers among them. Thus, we denote this as $N_{\text{even}} = 3$.

Step 3: Calculate the probability of drawing an even number. The probability $P(\text{even})$ is the ratio of the number of even cards to the total number of cards, which can be expressed as:
$$P(\text{even}) = \frac{N_{\text{even}}}{N_{\text{total}}} = \frac{3}{6}$$

Step 4: Simplify the fraction to find the final probability. The fraction $\frac{3}{6}$ simplifies to $\frac{1}{2}$, which gives us:
$$P(\text{even}) = \frac{1}{2}$$

Therefore, the probability of drawing a card with an even number on it is $\boxed{\frac{1}{2}}$.
