Step-by-step explanation:
write it as a fraction.
Example:
What is the probability of drawing a diamond from a deck of cards?
- The number on the bottom of the fraction is the total number of objects/possibilities.
- There are 4 suits in a deck of cards (spades, clubs, hearts, diamonds) so that is the number that goes on the bottom of the fraction (the denominator)
?/4
- diamonds is only 1 of the four suits so the number on the top of the fraction (the numerator) will be 1
1/4
- you can express this in many ways such as a fraction or percentage
I HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL :-)
