Question

a group of students enter a baseball game. 14 students buy a hotdog, 10 students buy nachos, 12 students buy popcorn, and 4 students buy pizza. find the probability that a student did not buy nachos. p(not nachos) = ? round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of students

$14 + 10+12 + 4=40$

Step2: Calculate number of students who did not buy nachos

$40 - 10 = 30$

Step3: Calculate the probability

$P(\text{Not Nachos})=\frac{30}{40}= 0.75$

Answer:

0.75
