We start by identifying the total number of outcomes, which is $$12$$.

The even numbers available on the die are $$2, 4, 6, 8, 10,$$ and $$12$$. There are $$6$$ even numbers.

The probability of rolling an even number is then given by

$$
\frac{\text{Number of even outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}.
$$

Thus, the probability is $$ \frac{1}{2} $$.
The probability of rolling an even number is $$ \frac{1}{2} $$.
