Question

You need to guess on a multiple-choice question that has four options.

What are the odds that you choose the correct answer?

Answer 1

1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

Explanation:

Because there are 4 options, you know that you can either choose one of those 4 options. So you have the chance of choosing 4 different ones. Only one of them can be right, so we know that there are 1 of 4 answers right. We put this in a fraction like this:

1/4.

1 Represents the number of answers that are right

4 Represents the total number of answers possible.

Therefore, you have a 1/4 chance of choosing the right answer. Put this in your calculator and you get decimal 0.25, which is the frequency. Times this number by 100 and you'll get the percent chance that you will choose the right answer.

I hope I explained this well enough.

Answer 2

the answer is 25 percent
