Answer:

C

Explanation:

Since you include zero as a number, then it would be 9 numbers in all. 3 if the nine numbers are success, so it would be 3/9. 3/9 as a percent would be around 33 percent.

Answer:

C) 33%

Explanation:

To solve for the percentage of success, we first need to find out how many numbers we are working with. In this case, there are 9 numbers (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8).

Since there are 3 "successful" numbers, (0,1,2), we can write the probability as a fraction

3/9 (represents number of successes over number of possible outcomes)

This simplifies to be 33%
