Question

Jake has a 1 in 5 chance of winning the egg and spoon race.

What is the probability that he will not win the race?

Answer 1

4/5

Explanation:

if he has a 1/5 of winning, the left over chances he has has to be towards losing because we already know his chance of winning, and there is no in between, so the left over is 4/5

Answer 2

4/5

subtract 1/5 from 5/5.
