Question:
The following table shows the number of comments on each of Omar's 9 most recent social media posts.
0 2 8
7 0 0
0 6 4
Based on this data, what is a reasonable estimate of the probability that Omar's next post will get no comments?
Answer:
P(0) = 44.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the number of comments on each of Omar's 9 most recent social media posts.
We want to find the probability that Omar's next post will have 0 comments.
We know that probability is given by
P(0) = No. of desired outcomes/No. of total outcomes
From the above data we know that total number of outcomes are 9.
Now count the number of times Omar got 0 comments.
These are the desired outcomes. (4 times)
Therefore, the probability of getting 0 comments is
P(0) = 4/9
P(0) = 0.444
P(0) = 44.4%
