Question

There are 756756 identical plastic chips numbered 11 through 756756 in a box. what is the probability of reaching into the box and randomly drawing a chip number that is greater than 569569? express your answer as a simplified fraction or a decimal rounded to four decimal places.

Answer 1

Your answer would be
p(x>569569)= ((756756-569569)/(756756))
                    =(187187/756756)
                    =187/756
                    =0.2473544974
                    =0.2474
