Solution:

Given:

$\begin{gathered} 0,1,2,3,4 \\ Total\text{ number of outcomes}=5 \\ \\ success=2,3 \\ Total\text{ number of success}=2 \end{gathered}$

Thus,

$\begin{gathered} P(success)=(2)/(5) \\ As\text{ a percentage,} \\ P(success)=(2)/(5)*100\text{ \%} \\ P(success)=40\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the estimated probability of success is 40%

OPTION B is correct.
