Question

there are 8 prizes and 20 blanks in a lottery if the lottery is drawn at random what is the probability of getting a prize​

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability = Favourable outcome/ Total number of possible outcomes

Hence we can say that

Probability = 8/20                                                                                                      (8 is the favorable outcome as winning as in the question it asks what is the probability of getting a prize and the total number of blanks is equal to 20)

Probability = 4/10 = 2/5

Hence the probability of getting a prize is 2/5. We can write it like this:

Or P(p) = 2/5

It basically means the probability of winning a prize is 2/5
