Question

Which is the best way to stimulate choosing one student out of 12 to answer a question?

Answer 1

Step 1

Given;

`12\text{ students}`

Required; To determine the best way to stimulate choosing one student out of 12 to answer a question.

Step 2

Determine the probability of choosing one student from 12 to answer a question.

`Pr(1\text{ student to answer)=}\frac{Number\text{ of required events}}{\text{Total number of events}}=(1)/(12)`

The only option with an equivalent probability that can be used to simulate as required is;

`\begin{gathered} Pr(\text{six sided die and flip a coin)=}(1)/(6)*(1)/(2)=(1)/(12) \\ \end{gathered}`

Answer; Option A
