Question

At a glass vase factory, 3 out of the last 15 vases produced were chipped. what is the experimental probability that the next vase will be chipped?

Answer 1

 At a glass vase factory, 3 out of the last 15 vases produced were chipped.

We can find the probability by using

P(E)= Total number of outcome in E/ Total number of outcome in the sample space.  

The event of getting 3 vases is E = 3 vase

The sample space is given by S = {1,2,3,4…….,13,14,15}

The no. of possible outcome in the Event E is 3 vases and the no. of possible outcome in Space S is 15.

Probability of getting 3 vase is

P(3) =3/15 which is 1/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

this is

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the experimental probability as a fraction in simplest form.

P(chipped) =

chipped/total

=

3 /18=1/6

So, P(chipped) = 1/6
