Question

A group of people were asked if they owned a dog. 201 responded "yes", and 276 responded "no".Find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they own a dog. Three multiple choices below (fractions)201____477********* 75___201 ********* 201___276

Answer 1

a) 201/477

Step-by-step explanation

The experimental probability of event A where a person chosen at random from the group owns a dog is the quotient between number of people who own a dog and the total number of people surveyed:

`P(A)=(201)/(201+276)=(201)/(477)`

So the answer is option A
