Question

The results of a recent television survey of American TV households revealed that 86 out of every 100 TV households have at least one remote control. What is the probability that a randomly selected TV household does not have at least one remote control? (Enter your answer as a fraction.)

Answer 1

Answer:

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$

Explanation:

given,

86 out of every 100 TV households have at least one remote control

Probability of any material is calculated by.

$Probability = \dfrac{favourable\ outcome}{Total\ outcome}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{86}{100}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=0.86$

now, Calculating probability that at least one remote control

   q = 1 - 0.86

   q = 0.14

$P(doesnot\ have\ at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{14}{100}$

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$
