Question

Use the theoretical method to determine the probability of the outcome or event given below.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{7}$ probability that the next president of the United States was born on Monday

Step-by-step explanation:

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

The next president of the United States was born on Monday

Any person, including the next president of the United States, can be born on 7 possible days: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday, one of which is Monday.

So

$\frac{1}{7}$ probability that the next president of the United States was born on Monday
