Answer 1

Answer:

1/8 is the probability of any student who is surveyed randomly ,likes chicken.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students surveyed = 240

Number of  Students who like  chicken  = 30

Number of  students who like pasta = 18

Now, Let  E:  Event of children preferring chicken

Then , $P(E) = \frac{\textrm{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\textrm{Total outcome}}$

⇒ P(E) =  30/ 240  

P(Students who like chicken) = 1/8

So, the  1/8 is the probability of any student who is surveyed randomly ,likes chicken.
