Answer:

Prize, P = $352

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jeff's share be J.
Let the value of the prize be P.

<u>Given the following data;</u>

J = $160
J = 5P/11

To find the value of the prize;

$\frac {5}{11} * P = 160$

$\frac {5P}{11} = 160$

Cross-multiplying, we have;

$5P = 160 * 11$

$5P = 1760$

$P = \frac {1760}{5}$

<em>Prize, P = $352</em>

SOVA2 [1]

First you have to make the assumption that these are the only two outcomes. There is also the possibility of hitting the ball and getting out.

However, if we assume that these are the only two cases, we know that the probability is 58.3%. This is because it has been on base 7 times out of 12.
