Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:

20%

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • The banner reads that there is an 80% chance of winning a prize.

⸻⸻⸻⸻


100\% - 80\% = \boxed{20\%}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • There is a 20% chance that the player would not win.

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
