The formula
for probability is:
Probability
= number of successful events / number of total events
In this
case, the number of total events is equivalent to the total number of peas.
number of
total events = 402 + 38
number of
total events = 440 peas
Since we
want to estimate the probability of getting a green pea, therefore
number of
successful events = 402 green peas
Using the
formula, the probability for getting a green pea is:
Probability
= 402 / 440
<span>Probability
= 0.91 (ANSWER)</span>
<span>The result
is not reasonably close to the value of ¾ or 0.75.</span>
