Your fraction that is equal to 3/12 is 1/4
Answer: 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
A survey of 364 children aged 19-36 months found that 91 liked to eat potato chips.
Total children surveyed= 364
Those that like to eat potato chips= 91
Those that don't like to eat potato chips= 364 - 91 = 273
Probability that the child chosen doesn't like to eat potato chips will be children that don't like to eat potato chips divided by total number of children surveyed.
= 273/364
= 0.75
