Pregunta 91

Two events have probabilities 0.8 and 0.35. Which of the two probabilities belongs to the event that is more likely? Enter that probability as a decimal.

Respuesta correcta

0.8

Explicación

The nearer a probability lies to 1, the more often the event happens, and 0.8 is closer to 1 than 0.35 is, so 0.8 belongs to the more likely event. Reading 0.35 as the larger number because it shows more digits ignores place value, since 0.35 is thirty-five hundredths while 0.8 is eighty hundredths.
