Answer:
(D) 5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
(A) 1/3 = 33.3%
(B) 3/5 = 60.0%
(C) 1 = 100%
(D) 5/3 = 167%
Probability (usually) only ranges from 0% (no chance of the event happening) to 100% (no chance of the event not happening or the event will always be happening).
Since (A), (B), and (C) are all > 0% and < 100%, they are all possible for a probability. Since (D) is > 0% but > 100%, it is not possible for a probability.
