Final answer:

The events in order from least to most likely for Gustavo's home runs are: 0-19 home runs, 40+ home runs, and 20-39 home runs based on their respective probabilities of 25%, 30%, and 45%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student asked to put the following events in order from least to most likely for Gustavo, the league's home run leader: 20-39 home runs, 0-19 home runs, and 40+ home runs based on the given probabilities. To sort the events:

0-19 home runs = 1/4 or 25%

40+ home runs = 0.3 or 30%

20-39 home runs = 45%

Therefore, the order from least to most likely is:

0-19 home runs

40+ home runs

20-39 home runs
