Answer: Our required probability is 0.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of window seats = 12

Number of aisle seats = 8

Total number of seats = 12+8 = 20

According to question, the next person to buy a ticket will be assigned to one of those seats.

Probability that the next person will be assigned to an aisle seat is given by

\dfrac{\text{Number of aisle seats}}{\text{Total number of seats}}\\\\=\dfrac{8}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=0.4

Hence, our required probability is 0.4.
