Question

Josephine wrote the numbers 1-100 and placed them in a bag.If she selects a number without looking what is the probability that the number is greater than 78

Answer 1

There are 100 total numbers in the bag, and 23 of them are greater than 78 (79, 80, 81, etc.), so the probability of selecting a number greater than 78 is 23/100, or approximately 0.23. You can also express this probability as 23%, or approximately 23%.
