B. 0.25
OC. 0,3
D. 0.33

Answer 1

Answer:  A. 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability for any event = $\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes for event}}{\text{Total possible outcomes}}$

Three flavors of juice are offered at a school cafeteria.

The given table:

Orange Grape   Cherry

51             30              69

Total juices = 51+30+69 =150

Now, the probability that a student who bought juice chosen at random purchased the grape flavor= $\dfrac{\text{Number of grape juices}}{\text{Total juices}}$

$=\dfrac{30}{150}=0.2$

Hence, the correct option is A.
