Shaquana owns a small business selling bagels. She knows that in the last week 93 customers paid cash, 7 customers used a debit card, and 5 customers used a credit card.
Based on these results, express the probability that the next customer will pay with cash as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.

"Probability is simply how likely something is to happen. Whenever we're unsure about the outcome of an event, we can talk about the probabilities of certain outcomes—how likely they are."

What is decimal?

"A decimal is a fraction written in a special form. Instead of writing [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], for example, you can express the fraction as the decimal 0.5, where the zero is in the ones place and the five is in the tenths place."

We have

Customers paid cash = 93

Customers used debit card = 7

Customers used credit card = 5

Number of favorable outcomes n(S)

= 93

Total number of outcomes n(E)

= 93+7+5

= 105

The probability that the next customer will pay with cash

= [tex]\frac{n(S)}{n(E)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{93}{105}[/tex]

= [tex]0.885[/tex]

= 0.89 (nearest hundredth)

Hence, the probability that the next customer will pay with cash as a decimal to the nearest hundredth is 0.89.
