You bought one $2 chance on an $84 radio. Sixty chances were sold. What is the probability of your winning the radio?
1 in 60.
so is the answer to my other questions about this same subject the same?
i dont know i have the same ques\tion
To find the probability of winning the radio, we need to know two things: the number of chances you bought and the total number of chances sold.
You bought one $2 chance, so that means you have 1 chance out of the total number of chances sold. In this case, the total number of chances sold is 60.
Therefore, the probability of winning the radio can be calculated as:
Probability of winning = Number of chances you bought / Total number of chances sold
Probability of winning = 1 / 60
So, the probability of you winning the radio is 1/60.
