Step-by-step explanation:

fichoh

The probability of choosing a horse, zebra or unicorn is 75%

Total possible outcomes = Total number of animals = (4 + 4 + 2 + 18 + 1 + 6 + 3 + 3 + 6 + 1) = 48 animals

Required outcome = The Number of horse, unicorn or zebra = (6 + 3 + 18) = 36

Recall :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Hence, the probability of choosing a zebara, unicorn or horse is :

  • 36/48 = 0.75
  • Expressed as a percentage = 0.75 × 100% = 75%
