Marlon asks a friend to think of a number from 5-11. What is the probability that marlins friend will think of the number 9

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

14.29% probability that Marlon's friend will think of the number 9

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

There are 7 numbers from 5 to 11(5,6,7,8,9,10,11)

9 is one of them

$p = \frac{1}{7} = 0.1429$

14.29% probability that Marlon's friend will think of the number 9
