Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{3}{85}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that a small town’s raffle has 85 entries and 3 gift baskets that three different people could win.
Total number of entries = 85
Total number of gift baskets = 3
We need to find the probability of winning a gift basket.
[tex]\text{Required probability}=\dfrac{\text{Total number of gift baskets}}{\text{Total number of entries}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{required probability}=\dfrac{3}{85}[/tex]
Therefore, the required probability is [tex]\dfrac{3}{85}[/tex].
