Step-by-step explanation:
since the total number of players is 44, the Universal set will also be 44.
let C be the set for Comedy
let T be the set for Tragedy
let H be the set for Histories
ξ = { 44 }
C = { 11 }
T = { 17 }
H = { 16 }
probability T = (17/44)
odds of selecting T = probability not T
= 1 - probability T
= 1 - ( 17/44)
= 27/44
you need to give the answer as a ratio of odds of selecting T against chances of selecting T;
if out of 44 players, the chances of not selecting T is 27 and the chances of selecting T is 17, then:
odds against selecting random is, 27: 17
that's the answer. hope this helps you!
