Question

suppose a survey was conducted across the country regarding the number of firearms of people had in their household the sample size were twenty-five thousand and seventeen thousand households reported they had no firearm in their home but would be in empirical probability that a randomly-selected household had no firearms in their home

Answer 1

Given data

Sample size ( Total possible outcomes ) = 25000

Number of households reported they had no firearm ( Required outcomes ) = 17000

The empirical probability that a randomly-selected household had no firearms in their home​

$\begin{gathered} =\frac{N\text{umber of required outcomes }}{N\text{umber of total possible outcome}}\text{ } \\ =\text{ }\frac{17000}{25000} \\ =\text{ }\frac{17}{25} \end{gathered}$

Final answer

= 0.68
