Answer:

3/52

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of winning a free gallon of milk will be calculated as under -

It is given that, total number of outcomes = 156

Non-winning customers = 147 (it is given in the question)

Thus, the winning customers will be = Total outcomes - Non-winning customers

Expected winning customers = 156 - 147 = 9

The probability is calculated as -

Probability (Winning customer) = winning customers/total customers

Probability (Winning customer) = = 9/156 = 3/52
