I believe the answer would be B, since both situations give you 6 chances at drawing/rolling the right number/marble.
Answer:
- <em>D. The game is not fair because the probability of Hal drawing a winning letter is less then the probability of Renee drawing a winning letter </em>
Explanation:
The word is not probably, which has 8 letters, but probability, which has 11 letters
<u>1. Hal</u>
Probability of drawing a vowel
- The vowels are: o, a, i, i, and y: 5
- The total number of letters in the bag is 11.
- Probability of vowel = 5 / 11
<u>2. Renee</u>
Probability of drawing a consonant
- The consonants are: p, r, b, b, l, t, and y: 7
- Probability of a drawing a consonant: 7 /11
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
As you see, the probability of drawing a vowel (5/11), which is the winning letter for Hal, is less than the probability of drawing a consonant (7/11), which is the winning letter of Renee. Then,
- The game is not fair because the probability of Hal drawing a winning letter is less then the probability of Renee drawing a winning letter.
First divide 6/(6+6+8) =0.3
Then multiple it by 100 to get the probability percentage 30%
I'm not entirely sure what you're looking for, but here are your options. If you need a perfect square, I'd go for the 12 and 12, but I hope this helps?
