I need help with a Baseline.. I don't know any of it..<3 @Hero
At a carnival game, a large horizontal board has holes of the same size cut in it. For the game, you toss a ball onto the board and it lands or rolls into one of the holes. The board is surrounded on all sides, so the ball is certain to fall in a hole. Three of the holes will earn a small prize and one of the holes will earn a large prize. If Grady buys a ticket for one ball that he'll toss on the board, what is the probability that he'll win a prize? A) 5% B)15% C)20% D)40%
P.s. There a lot more questions I need help with.. -.-
the way it is written it sounds as if it will surely fall in to one hole and so surely win some prize. i think maybe there is something missing here
or maybe a number missing here At a carnival game, a large horizontal board has ???? holes of the same size cut in it"
20 holes.. sorry x)
Is the answer 5%?
so if we assume the holes are equally likely to be landed in, it is \(\frac{4}{20}=\frac{20}{100}=20\%\)
4 holes give prizes, 20 holes total, ratio is \(\frac{4}{20}\)
How'd you get that answer.. o.o
Did you mulitply 100 by 20? To get 20 %?
@satellite73
how did i get what answer?
i mean, are you asking why it is \(\frac{4}{20}\) or are you asking "why is \(\frac{4}{20}=20\% ?\)"
No I mean, how did you solve this problem? I totally lost on how to solve it.. how did you get 4/20 and 20/100?
Also, how did you get that answer? ^
@satellite73
how many holes contain prizes?
..Idk ._.
