Which of the following is not a possible value for a probability? A. 0.05 B. 15 percent C. 1.00000005 D. 1 E. 0

OpenStudy (1018):

this is just a guess but i think it's C? since probabilities should only be equal to 1 (100%), or in most cases.

OpenStudy (1018):

is there a way to verify the answer for this question?

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

but what abut 15 percent?

OpenStudy (1018):

what about it? is that your answer? :)

OpenStudy (1018):

im sorry im also still learning statistics. haha. but that's just my answer

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

No I'm saying isn't that over 1 too

OpenStudy (1018):

oh no, 15% is 0.15 in decimal form

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

oh okay okay :] Thanks

OpenStudy (1018):

in probabilities, 1 or 100% is mostly used. but i think my professor said something about some cases were it isnt a hundred percent

OpenStudy (1018):

zarkam21 (zarkam21):
