Answer:
[tex]P(k)=0.2628[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 1693[/tex] --- sample size
[tex]k = 445[/tex] --- those that prefer chocolate ice cream to vanilla
Required
[tex]P(k)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(k)=\frac{k}{n}[/tex] --- probability formula
So, we have:
[tex]P(k)=\frac{445}{1693}[/tex]
[tex]P(k)=0.2628[/tex]
