If the probability for snow today was forecast to be 30%, what are the odds against it snowing today?

70% right?

Yes, just subtract it from 100, because percentage always adds up to 100.

Well, if the probability of snow today is 30%, then the odds against it snowing would be 70%. But let's be honest, weather forecasts can be as reliable as a dog with a broken GPS collar. So, pack your snow boots just in case, but don't forget your sunglasses too, because you never know what Mother Nature has up her sleeve!

To calculate the odds against it snowing today, we can use the formula:

Odds Against = (1 - Probability) / Probability

In this case, the probability of snow today is 30% or 0.30. Therefore, we can calculate the odds against it snowing today as follows:

Odds Against = (1 - 0.30) / 0.30

Odds Against = 0.70 / 0.30

Odds Against = 2.33

So, the odds against it snowing today would be approximately 2.33.

To calculate the odds against an event, we need to determine the probability of the event not happening. In this case, if the forecasted probability of snow is 30%, then the probability of no snow would be 100% minus 30%, which is 70%.

The odds against snowing can be expressed as a ratio of the probability of no snow to the probability of snow. In this case, the odds against snowing would be 70% to 30%.

So, the odds against it snowing today would be 70%:30%.
