Jerry mixes the letter F P M M M D P and J thoroughly. Without looking, Amanda draws one letter. Expressed as a fraction, decimal, and percentage, what is the probability that j will not be the letter Amanda selects

Respuesta :

there are 8 letters total and 1 is J
 so 7/8 probability of not picking the J

Fraction: 7/8
decimal: 0.875
percentage: 87.5%


The Probability of that 'j' will not be selected by Amanda in  Fraction is [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

The Probability of that 'j' will not be selected by Amanda in  Decimal is 0.875

The Probability of that 'j' will not be selected by Amanda in  Percentage is 87.5%

What is Probability ?

Probability is a "Possibility, that deals with a Occurrence of Random event".

According to the question,

Sample Space n(s) = 8

Number of Favourable Events (Amanda will not be Select 'j' letter) = 7.

Formula to find Probability of an event = [tex]\frac{Number of Favourable Events }{Total number of events}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

The  Probability of Amanda will not be Select 'j' letter = [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Hence,

In Fraction, the Probability of Amanda will not be Select 'j' letter =[tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

In Decimal, the Probability of Amanda will not be Select 'j' letter = 0.875

In Percentage, the cof Amanda will not be Select 'j' letter

= [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex] × 100 = 87.5%.
