Answer:

Probability the number selected is 111 or smaller than 107 = 0.3

Explanation:

Probability is the ratio of number of favorable outcome to the total number of outcomes.

Total number of outcomes when picking a number from the group 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114 = 10

Number less than 107 in the group are 105 and 106

Number of favorable outcome for the number selected is 111 or smaller than 107 = 3

Probability the number selected is 111 or smaller than 107
=(3)/(10) =0.3
