Question

the probability of getting a rotten egg from a lot of 400 egg is 0.035 find the number of rotten eggs in the lot

Answer 1

x/400=0.035
x= 3.5× 4
x= 14
rotten eggs = 14

Answer 2

Hey there!

Given: Probability of bad eggs = 0.035

Total number of eggs = 400


Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

⇒ 0.035 = x/400 

⇒ x = 0.035 × 400

⇒ x = 14

Therefore,
Total no. of bad eggs = x =14
