Another probability question. If you count 50 four door cars and 30 two door cars what is the probability of the next car to be a two door
Anyone please answer

To calculate the probability of the next car being a two-door, you need to know the total number of cars and the number of two-door cars. In this case, you have counted 50 four-door cars and 30 two-door cars.
To find the probability, you divide the number of favorable outcomes (the number of two-door cars) by the number of possible outcomes (the total number of cars).
Total number of cars = 50 (four-door cars) + 30 (two-door cars) = 80
Number of favorable outcomes = 30 (two-door cars)
Now, you can calculate the probability:
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes
Therefore, the probability of the next car being a two-door is:
Probability = 30 / 80 = 0.375 or 37.5%
