Question

A retail store served 669 customers in October, and there were 27 complaints during that month. What is the experimental probability that a customer complains? Give your answer as a percentage, rounded to the nearest whole percent.

Answer 1

Probability that a customer complains in percentage = 4% (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Total number of customers = 669

Total number of complaints = 27

Find:

Probability that a customer complains

Computation:

Probability that a customer complains = 27 / 669

Probability that a customer complains in percentage = [27 / 669]100

Probability that a customer complains in percentage = [0.040358]100

Probability that a customer complains in percentage = 4.0358%

Probability that a customer complains in percentage = 4% (Approx)
