Answer 1

Answer: 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The relative frequency of the customers that buy computers is equal to the number of customers that bought a computer divided the total number of customers that entered the shop.

p = 25/100 = 0.25

If we take this as the probability, then the probability that the next customer that enters the shop buys a computer is 0.25 or 25%
