The Floridians can predict to hear the thunder on about 183 days out of the 730 days.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given that,
- The total number of days = 730 days.
- The probability of hearing thunder on any day in Florida = 25%
Let 'x' be the number of days out of 730 days that Floridians will hear thunder.
<u>To find the number of days that Floridians will hear thunder :</u>
Number of days will hear thunder = 25% of Total days
The 25% can be expressed in the form of 25/100.
Therefore, the x days that Floridians will hear thunder is given as,
⇒ x = (25/100) × 730
Further simplifying the above equation,
⇒ x = 2.5 × 73
⇒ x = 182.5
Since the number next to the decimal point is equal to 5, round it to the nearest integer.
Therefore, the value of x is approximately equal to 183 days.
Thus the Floridians can predict to hear the thunder on about 183 days out of the 730 days.
