In a popular online role playing game, players can create detailed designs for their character's "costumes," or appearance. Latanya sets up a website where players can buy and sell these costumes online. Information about the number of people who visited the website and the number of costumes purchased in a single day is listed below.

58 visitors purchased no costume.
156 visitors purchased exactly one costume.
23 visitors purchased more than one costume.

Based on these results, express the probability that the next person will purchase exactly one costume as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer:

52/79

Explanation:

One costume = 156 (This is our numerator.)

All visitors = 156 + 58 + 23 = 237 (This is our denominator.)

156/237

Find the GCF to simplify (sneak peek it's 3)

156/3 = 52

237/3 = 79

52/79 (tada!)
