Answer:
A. 6%
B. 14%
C. 80%
Step-by-step explanation:
Typically the easiest way to think of probability problems is with the "formula"
probability = part ÷ whole.
The "whole" part of the earlier formula is the total number of times the cup was flipped ("whole" = 50).
The "part" portion of the formula is the number of times that result occurred ("part" = 3, 7, and 40).
A. The probability of the open side up result is probability = 3÷50 = 0.06 = 6%.
B. The probability of the closed side up result is probability = 7÷50 = 0.14 = 14%.
C. The probability of the landing on side result is probability = 40÷50 = 0.8 = 80%.
