Answer 2

According to probability rule,

The probability of an outcome must be positive and less than or equal to 1 or 100%.

Probability above 1 or 100% doesn’t exist.

So,

Option A) negative (not considered)

Option B) more than 100% (not considered)

Option C) 5/3, more than 1 (not considered)

Option D) less than 1 or 100% (would be considered)


We can say 20% would be considered to be. Probability outcome as 20/100 equals 1/5 which is less than 1.


Hope it will help.
