Answer:

The correct answer are given by (A) \frac{1}{175000} ; (B) \frac{429}{175000}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of entries to the sweepstakes offered by Gemini Paper Products = 175,000.

Total number of prizes to be awarded includes 1 grand prize, 3 first prizes, 25 second prizes and 400 third prizes = 1 + 3 + 25 + 400 = 429.

(A) Required Probability for a person who has put one entry to win the grand prize is given by the fraction \frac{1}{175000}.

(B) Required Probability for a person who has put one entry to win any prize offered is given by \frac{429}{175000}.
