Do you think that you could ever have a probability of

1110? Why or why not? Be sure to use the definition of probability

No. The maximum percentage is 100%. There is no such thing as 1110% in probability. Probability pretty much means the chance of something happens out of 100%.

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Probability meaning: "the extent to which something is probable; the likelihood of something happening or being the case."

Probability only is a range from 1-100 %

Probability can also be written as a percentage, which is a number from 0 to 100 percent. ... The probability of a certain event occurring depends on how many possible outcomes the event has. If an event has only one possible outcome, the probability for this outcome is always 1 (or 100 percent).
