Question

A department within an agency is randomly chosen each week for auditing. If there are 25 departments, what is the chance that any single department is chosen for auditing in a given week?

Answer 1

Answer:

The chance that any single department is chosen for auditing in a given week is 0.04%

Explanation:

Given that a department within an agency is randomly chosen per week for auditing and we are given total number of departments are 25 departments of which 1 is to be chosen.

Now chance of any single department to be chosen in any particular week will be given by 1 dividing by total no. of departments

which is equal to 1/25

1/25 = 0.04%

which is the chance of percentage of choosing a department
