Question

There are 728 identical plastic chips numbered 1 through 728 in a box.What is the probability of reaching into the box and randomly drawing the chip numbered 544? Express your answer as a simplified fraction or a decimal rounded to four decimal places

Answer 1

1/728

Explanation:

The probability of drawing 544 is the same as the probability of choosing a random number from the 728 numbers in the box, since it is only one chip among the 728.

Therefore:

P = 1/728 =0.0014
