A person playing a carnival game has a 1 in 50 chance of winning a prize for each play. Each play is independent. If the person plays 10 times, what are the chances that the person would win a prize?

Respuesta :

Answer:

10/500

Step-by-step explanation:

If the chance of winning a prize for each play is 1 in 50 that means the fraction would look like this:
[tex]\frac{1}{50}[/tex]

Therefore if the person plays 10 times simply mutiply the fraction by ten.

[tex]\frac{1}{50}[/tex] x 10

[tex]=\frac{10}{500}[/tex]

Since the question does not ask you to simplify you can leave your answer like that.

[tex]\frac{10}{500}[/tex]
