Answer to Problem 9PPS

Theprobability of each outcome is 120 or 5%

Explanation of Solution

Given information: A dashboard is divided into 20 equal sections

  Pre-Algebra Student Edition, Chapter 13.6, Problem 9PPS , additional homework tip 1

Formula Used:

Probability is defined as the likelihood of an event.

Probability is calculated as

  Probability=EventOutcomes

Calculation:

Given that dashboard if equally divided into 20 sections as displayed below

  Pre-Algebra Student Edition, Chapter 13.6, Problem 9PPS , additional homework tip 2

ValumeTotal sections =20

Thus, probability of each outcome is calculated as

  P=120

On converting the probability into percent,

  P=120×100P=5%

Conclusion:

Hence, probability of each outcome is 120 or 5%
