Question

Which of the following is not a legitimate probability of an event? 0.001 1.0 1.001 0.999 0.0

Answer 1

Explanation:

Not legitimate: 1.001

Probability must be between 0 (impossible event) and 1 (guaranteed to happen).

Answer 2

Answer: 1.001

Explanation:

The probability of an event is always within 0 or 1.

✓ 0 > 0.001 > 1

✓ 0 > 1.0 > 1

✗ 0 > 1.001 > 1

✓ 0 > 0.999 > 1

✓ 0 > 0.0 > 1

1.001 is not within 0 or 1, so it's not a legitimate probability of an event.
