Question

A group of people were asked if they owned a dog. 191 responded "yes", and 485 responded "no".Find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they own a dog. 191485 294191 191676

Answer 1

191/676.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people asked is 191 + 485

= 676.

So. the required probability

= number of people owning a dog/ total number of people

= 191/676.

Answer 2

Given:

There are given that the number of people who said yes is 191 and who said no is 485.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given question:

The total number of people is:

`191+485=676`

That means the total outcome is 676.

Now,

The probability that the person is chosen own dog is:

`P=\frac{The\text{ number of people who have their own dog}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}`

So,

`P=\frac{191}{\text{6}76}`

Final answer:

Hence, the correct option is C.
