Suppose the odds for a bet are 8: 1. Your friend tells you that he thinks the odds are too generous. Select all of the odds that are less generous. (4:1, 18:1, 14:1, 19:1)
Remember that
Probability and odds are slightly different ways of describing a player's chances of winning a bet.
8:1 is the same that have a probability of 1/8 (0.125 or 12.5%)
Verify each value
4:1 -----> 1/4 (25%)
18:1 ----> 1/18 (5.56%)
14:1 ----> 1/14 (7.14%)
19:1 ----> 1/19 (5.26%)
therefore
the odds that are less generous are
18:1
14:1
19:1
