Question

The chance of winning a game is 52%. Calculate the chance of losing a game ? Convert your answer from a percentage to a decimal round your answer to 2 decimal places

Answer 1

The chance of winning a game is 52%.

As the sum of chances of winning the game and losing the game is 100%, we can calculate the chances of losing by substracting 52% from 100%:

`P(L)=100\%-52\%=48\%`

We can then transform this percentage to decimal by dividing it by 100%:

`P(L)=(48\%)/(100\%)=0.48`

Answer: the chances of losing the game, expressed as decimal, is 0.48.
