The probability of obtaining a 4 when rolling a fair die, numbered one to six, is 1/6. Which percentage is equivalent to this probability? Responses
a.6 % b.16% c.16 1/3 % d.16 2/3%
b. 16%
To determine the percentage equivalent to a probability, you can multiply the probability by 100.
In this case, the probability of obtaining a 4 when rolling a fair die is 1/6.
Percentage = Probability * 100
Percentage = (1/6) * 100
Percentage = 16 2/3 %
Therefore, the correct answer is d. 16 2/3%
To determine the equivalent percentage of a probability, you can multiply the probability by 100.
In this case, the probability of obtaining a 4 when rolling a fair die is 1/6. To find the equivalent percentage, multiply this probability by 100:
(1/6) * 100 = 16.67
Rounding to two decimal places, we get 16.67%. Therefore, the correct answer is option d. 16 2/3%.
