Answer: Option "D" is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of an event = 0.1

Probability of an event = 0.3

Probability of an event = 0.5

Probability of an event = 0.7

So, the most likely to occur is the event which has the highest probability.


0.7>0.5>0.3>0.1

So, the most likely to occur is 0.7.

Hence, Option "D" is correct.
