100/1200= x/100
cross multiply

(1200 * x)= (100 * 100)

1200x= 10000
divide both sides by 1200

x= 8.333% winning chance


LOSING CHANCE
100% - 8.333%= 91.667%


RATIO OF WINNING TO LOSING
100 tickets= winning chance
1200 total - 100= 1100 losing chance

100:1100
simplify by 100

1:11 odds of winning to losing


ANSWER: The chance of winning is 8.333% and the chance of losing is 91.667% or 1:11.

Hope this helps! :)
