Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. As a fraction: 9/50</u>
  • <u>2. As a proportion: x/1 = 9/50</u>
  • <u>3. As a percentage: 18%</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. As a fraction:</u>

Depart from the definition of probability: probability is the number of favoragle outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes:

  • Probability = number of movie-goers who say they watched a movie on Netflix this week / number of movie-goers that saw a movie this week

  • Probability = 9 / 50

<u>2. As a proportion:</u>

A proportion is the equality of two ratios. In this case you must set the ratio of people who say they watched it on Netflx, x, per every people who saw a movie this week, 1, equal to the ration 9 /50.

Hence, the proportion that shows the probability is:

  • x / 1 = 9 / 50

Where x is the probability.

<u>3. As a percentage</u>

You just have to multiply the probability by 100:

  • (9/50) × 100 = 18%
