Answer:

3/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Prizes will be randomly awarded to three different people in a room of 50 people. If you are one of these people, what is the probability that you will win one of the prizes?

49  + 1

Probability of selecting as 1st winner = 1/50

Probability of not selecting 1st Winner = 49/50

Probaility of Selecting 2nd Winner = (49/50)(1/49) = 1/50

Probability of not Selecting even 2nd winner = (49/50)(48/49) = 48/50

Probability of Selecting 3rd Winner = (48/50)(1/48) = 1/50

Probability of Selecting as winner = 1/50 + 1/50 + 1/50

= 3/50
