Answer:

Days : Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Probability: 0.25 0.15 0.25 0.35

Explanation:

The number of apples sold :

Monday = 20

Tuesday = 12

Wednesday = 20

Thursday = 28

Total number of apples sold in 4 days = 20 + 12 + 20 + 28 = 80

Formula for probability:


Probability=\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Probability of each day

Monday =
(20)/(80)=0.25

Tuesday =
(12)/(80)=0.15

Wednesday =
(20)/(80)=0.25

Thursday =
(28)/(80)=0.35

Therefore the probability distribution table for this situation is

Days : Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Probability: 0.25 0.15 0.25 0.35
