Question

Simone is stranded on an island. The probability of her finding safety by waiting for help is 1/4. The probability of her finding safety by leaving in her raft is 0.32. Which of these events is more likely? Choose 1 answer: (Choice A) Simone finds safety by waiting for help. (Choice B) Simone finds safety by leaving in her raft. (Choice C) Neither Both events are equally likely.

Answer 1

Choice B is the right answer because
1/4 = 25/100
and 0.32/1 = 32/100
since,
32/100 > 25/100
thus,
10.32 > 1/4
thus be is the right answer.


hope this helps you and if yes please mark as brainliest.......

Answer 2

B

As probability when she leaves in a raft is 0.32 whereas probability when she waves her hand is 1/4=0.25

As 0.32>0.25, chances of saving her will be more when she leaves in raft
