Question

The weather forecast says there’s 70% probability of rain tomorrow. What are the odds against rain

Answer 1

30%

Explanation:

Key skills needed: Probability

1) There is a 70% chance of rain.

2) We need to find the chances against rain.

3) To do this, we need to use the fact that

70% + x = 100% (Since all the probabilities add up to 1 or 100%)

4) If you subtract 70% from both sides, x = 30%

5) This means the probability against rain is 30%.

Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D
