Answer 1

Given:

A randomly generated list of numbers from 0 to 4 is being used to simulate an event, with the number 4 representing success.

Required:

What is the estimated probability of success.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability is

`=\frac{\text{ Number of favorable cases}}{\text{ Total number of cases}}`

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are choices.

Favorable case is number 4.

So, probability

`\begin{gathered} =(1)/(5) \\ =0.2 \\ =20\% \end{gathered}`

Answer:

Option A is correct.
