Question

An attendant recorded the data in the table showing the types and colors of vehicles that parked in a parking lot. (Refer to the table in the image attached.) 1. What is the experimental probability that the next vehicle in the lot is a red car?

Answer 1

There are 22% of chances that the next vehicle in the lot is a red car.

Explanation:

The event is a red car vehicle. So, the experimental probability would be the ratio between the total number of red car vehicles and the total number of cars.

Notice that there are 22 red vehicles in total, and there are 100 cars in total. So, the ratio is

`P=(22)/(100) = (11)/(50) = 0.22`

Therefore, there are 22% of chances that the next vehicle in the lot is a red car.
