As part of a promotion, people who participate in a survey are sent a free coupon for one of three winter activities: skiing, snow tubing, or sleigh rides. Participants have an equal chance of receiving each type of coupon. If 900 people participate, how many would be expected to receive a coupon for sleigh rides?(1 point)

The expected number of people who would receive a coupon for sleigh rides can be calculated by multiplying the total number of participants (900) by the probability of receiving a coupon for sleigh rides (1/3):
900 * (1/3) = 300
Therefore, 300 people would be expected to receive a coupon for sleigh rides.
