Answer:

A- It means it will always happen, there is no way it won't happen as it is 100%

B- It is very unlikely to happen as it only has a 1 in 100 chance of happening

C- It will never happen, it is impossible as it is 0

D- It will most likely happen as it is 90%

Explanation:

A, 1/1 is 100% meaning it will always happen.

B- 1/100 is really low, there is only one chance of an event happening if it was to happen a hundred times.

C- 0/1 means it is impossible to happen as it is o

D- 9/10 is the same as 90/100, which is also equivalent to 90%. This means it is very likely to happen but it will not always happen.
