Answer:

49/78

Explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

probability that the number on the parking space where she parks is greater than or equal to 30 = numbers greater than or equal to 30 / total numbers

49 / 78
