Question

Of the 1260 visitors to a convention, 70 win door prizes.

Estimate the odds in favor of winning a door prize at the convention.

Answer 1

Are the odds chaotic?

Answer 2

what does that mean

Answer 3

Does every 21 person through the door win a door prize or is it random. Hence the "Chaotic Theory"

Answer 4

A synonym would be random

Answer 5

The odds are the ratio of the probability of an event occurring to that of its not occurring.
\[\large P(win)=\frac{70}{1260}\]
\[\large P(don't\ win)=\frac{1190}{1260}\]
Therefore the odds in favor of winning a door prize at the convention are:
\[\large 70:1190=1:17\]
