Respuesta :

The probability of choosing a hot dog is 16.7%

Relative frequency and probability

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

From the figure;

Total outcome = 4 + 6 + 2
Total outcome = 12

Since there are 2 hotdogs, hence the probability of choosing a hot dog is given as:

Pr(hot dog) = 2/12

Pr(hot dog) = 0.1667
Hence the probability of choosing a hot dog is 16.7%
