The probability that randomly chosen prize will be a baseball team jersey is 2/5.

What is probability?

Probability is "possibility that deals with occurrence of random event"

According to the question,

Helena was in-charge of the prize booth at the fair. She had the following prizes to give away:

                                     JACKETS                 JERSEYS      TOTAL

Basket ball team              6                                10                  16

Baseball team                  12                                8                   20

Probability formula = [tex]\frac{Number of favorable events}{Total number of events}[/tex]

In order to find the probability that randomly chosen prize will be a 'baseball team jersey'.

= [tex]\frac{8}{20}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that randomly chosen prize will be a baseball team jersey is 2/5.
