Answer:

The probability that the machine produces one defective motor in a production run of 100 items = 1% (1/100).

Step-by-step explanation:

0.03 = 3%  = 3 out of 100

This implies that out of a production run of 100 items, 3 are defective.

For only 1 to be defective out of a production run of 100 items, therefore, the probability

= 1/100 = 1% or 0.01, which is equal to (0.03/3)

The probability of the industrial center producing a refrigerator motor that is defective in a production run of 100 items is the chance that one event (one defective motor) will result from 100 events (100 items in a production run).
