Question

Dhruv is at a car dealership. He is going to randomly select a vehicle to test drive. There are 13 trucks, 8 vans, and 4 compact cars. What is P (Compact car)?

Answer 1

Answer:

P(compact cars) = 4/25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 13 trucks, 8 vans, and 4 compact cars.

Let P denotes the probability of an event

Now we are asked to find the probability of compact cars

Number of favorable events = number of compact cars = 4

total number of outcomes = 13+8+4 = 25

hence, P(compact cars) = number of favorable events/total outcomes

                                        =4/25

Answer 2

P(compact car) = number of compact cars / total number of cars = 4/25 = 16%
