The probability of a car speeding through a school zone is 0.045. What are the odds in favour of a car being a speeder?
To calculate the odds in favor of a car being a speeder, we need to use the formula:
Odds in favor = Probability of the event happening / Probability of the event not happening
Probability of a car speeding through a school zone = 0.045
Probability of a car not speeding through a school zone = 1 - 0.045 = 0.955
Odds in favor of a car being a speeder = 0.045 / 0.955 ≈ 0.047
Therefore, the odds in favor of a car being a speeder are approximately 0.047.
