Question

A randomly generated list of number from 0 to 7 is being used to simulate anevent, with the numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3 representing a success. What is theestimated probability of a success?A. 50%B. 40%C. 30%O D. 45%

Answer 1

To find the probability, we just need to divide the amount of possibilities that represent sucess, by the total amount of possibilities.

We have four possibilities representing sucess(0, 1, 2 and 3), and a total amount of eight(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).

Our probability is:

`(4)/(8)`

Writing this as a percentage:

`(4)/(8)=(4)/(8)*(12.5)/(12.5)=(50)/(100)`

We have a probability of 50%.
