Answer:

Probability thay the next page she turns to will have an advert = 0.4042

Explanation:

In the last 12 issues of the magazine, 384 out of 950 pages contain an advertisement.

We now need to find the probability that the next page has an advertisement.

Probability of an event

= n(of that event) ÷ n(total sample spaces)

n(of the event of an advert) = number of pages with adverts in those issues = 384

n(total sample spaces) = total number of pages = 950

Probability that the next page or any page at all will have an advert = (384/950) = 0.4042

Hope this Helps!!!
