You know that 45% of the students at your school own Xboxes. Suppose you stop random students as they enter school and ask whether they own an Xbox. What is the probability that the first student you ask owns an Xbox?

Even if we are given figures in order to determine the probability of owning an Xbox, I think it would still be right and justifiable to answer 0.5 to the query. This is because there are only two output to the question, answers should only be "Yes" or "No".
