Question

The probability of a traffic light being green is 9 14 . If 350 cars each approach the traffic light at a random time, what is the most likely number of cars out of the 350 that get the green light?

Answer 1

The answer is C

Explanation:

It is C because The probability of the traffic light being green is

9 /14

.This means that the most likely number of cars out of 350 getting green is

9 /14

× 350 = 225 .

Answer 2

I am assuming that the above probability is a fraction, 9/14.

So for every 14 traffic lights only 9 are green.

350 * 9/14 = 225

There would be 225 cars out of the 350 that would most likely get a green light.
