Question

Classify the statement as an example of classical probability, empirical probability, or subjective probability. In California's Pick Three lottery, a person selects a 3-digit number. The probability of winning California's Pick Three lottery is .1/1000

Answer 1

Using probability concepts, it is found that the probability is subjective.

--------------------------------------

• A classical probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes, considering no prior results of the experiments.
• An empirical probability is similar to the classical, considering prior results of experiments.
• The subjective probability involves personal beliefs along the calculations.

In this problem:

• There are 900 3-digit number, thus, the classical probability of winning is:

$p = \frac{1}{900}$

• The given probability is not the classical, and also does not involve previous trials, so it is subjective.
