Question

5. Alan and Alice play a game of noughts and crosses. From looking at previous games,
the probability of Alan winning is 0.31, the probability Alice will win is 0.45. What is
the probability of a draw?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Then the probability of a draw = 1- (p

Pr(Alan) = the probability of Alan winning = 0.31,

Pr(Alice) = the probability Alice will win = 0.45.

We are required to give probability of a draw.

= 1-(pr(alan) + pr(alice)

= 1-0.45+0.31

= 1 - 0.76

= 0.24

We have 24% probability of having a draw.
