Question

The

probability that there will be a major earthquake in the San
Francisco area during the next 30 years is .63. What are the
corresponding odds?

Answer 1

63 to 37

Explanation:

probability to odds:

For probability p, the odds are p to 1 - p.

p = 0.63

1 - p = 1 - 0.63 = 0.37

p to 1 - p = 0.63 to 0.37 = 63 to 37

odds = 63 to 37
