d. 1/2

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option A, [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Determine the numbers that are multiples of 3

8 → Not a multiple of 3

9 → Multiple of 3

14 → Not a multiple of 3

19 → Not a multiple of 3

25 → Not a multiple of 3

34 → Not a multiple of 3

38 → Not a multiple of 3

Step 2:  Determine the probability of chosing a multiple of 3

Since we only have 1 number that is a multiple of 3 out of the 7 given numbers, that means that we do the following:  

[tex]\frac{(1\ multiple\ of\ 3)}{7\ total\ numbers}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

Answer: Option A, [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]
