Question

Simple probability question; Attachment below.

Answer 1

it really is simple after you figure out what \(P(4)\) is, because then you multiply the result by \(600\)

Answer 2

the question really comes down to finding \(P(4)\)
any ideas, or you want a hint

Answer 3

Hint please..

Answer 4

the total probability is 1
you have already used up \(\frac{3}{4}\) of it on \(P(1), P(2), P(3)\)
how much is left?

Answer 5

1/4 is left for the other three, so that means that I would have to find 1/4 of 600 then divide it by 3 to get the Pr(4)?

Answer 6

that is one way to look at it, yes

Answer 7

i would have said what is left is \(\frac{1}{4}\) and since the other three are equally likely they must each be \(\frac{1}{12}\) but it amounts to the same thing, i.e. you will get the same answer in either case

Answer 8

Thanks for your help @satellite73 :D
