Answer 1

Given:

The total = 846.

The number of hot dogs sold at Tuesday night = 150.

Required:

We need to find the approximate probability of a person buying a hot dog and going to a Tuesday night game.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total possible outcomes = 846.

`n(S)=846`

Let A be the given event.

The favourable outcomes = The number of hot dogs sold at Tuesday night = 150.

`n(A)=150`

The approximate probability of a person buying a hot dog and going to a Tuesday night game.

`P=(n(A))/(n(S))*100`
`P=(150)/(846)*100`
`P=17.7`
`P=18\text{ \%}`

Final answer:

`P=18\text{ \%}`
