D.greater than or equal to one

Answer 1

Probabilities are less than or equal to one. (option B)

Step-by-step explanation :-

Probability means the chances of occurrence of an event. If there are 100% chances of its occurence then the probability for that event will be 1, and if there are no chances then it will be 0. If chances are undefined, then probability will lie between 0 and 1, but it will never go beyond 0 and above 1.

Formula for calculating probability :-

P(E) = No. of outcomes/Total no. of

outcomes.
