will rain + will not rain = 100%

  72%    + will not rain = 100%

                will not rain = 28%    <em>subtracted 72% from both sides</em>

Answer: 28%

The probability of any event is a number ranging from 0 to 1.

Once you partition the sample space (i.e. you find a sequence of events which are disjointed and cover the whole sample space), you know that the sum of the probabilities of the events in the partition is 1.

In particular, for every event E, the event and its negation \lnot E are a partition: they are disjointed (it is impossible that both an event and its negation happen at the same time) and they cover the whole sample space (the event will either happen or not happen, there are no alternatives).

So, you know that

P(E) + P(\lnot E) = 1

And you can deduce that

P(\lnot E) = 1-P(E)

This is a fundamental equation in probability: the probability of the negation of an event is the complementary to 1 of the probability of that event.

When dealing with percentage, 1 means 100%. So, if it rains with probability 72%, it doesn't rain with probability

100\%-72\% = 27\%

Softa [21]
Hey there!

You can find the medians by referring to the line in the middle of both of the boxes. These indicate the median of the sets of data you have. The first median is at 10 and the other is at 12. 

All you need to do to find the difference is subtract the smaller number from the bigger number. 

12 – 10 = 2

Your difference will be 2, making your second option your answer. Hope this helped you out! :-)
