Lin is interested in how many of her classmates watch her favorite TV show, so she starts asking around at lunch. She gets the following responses: 4 YES and 10 NO. If she ask one more random classmate, do you think they will say "YES" or " NO"?

Answer:

They will probably say NO

Explanation:

Add to find the total number of response.

10 + 4 = 14

Find the probability of someone saying yes or no.

4 / 14 ≈ 0.29 or 29%

10 / 14 ≈ 0.71 or 71%

As you can see, saying NO is more likely than saying YES.

Best of Luck!
