A community centre organises a raffle to raise money for charity.

There is 1 prize to be won in the raffle.

Daniel buys 17 raffle tickets.

A total of 280 tickets were sold.

Find the probability that Daniel does not win the prize.

Answer :

Answer:

Probability = 0.939

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Daniel buys 17 raffle tickets.

A total of 280 tickets were sold.

We need to find the probability that Daniel does not win the prize.

No of prize he does not win = 280 - 17

= 263

The formula of probability is given by :

P =( favourable outcomes/total no of outcomes)×100

[tex]P=\dfrac{263}{280}\\\\P=0.939[/tex]

Hence, the required probability is 0.939.
