There are 4 keys on a keychain. One of the keys starts a car. If a key is randomly chosen, what is the probability that it starts the car

A)15% B)25% C)20% D)5%

Respuesta :

B because 4 keys 100÷4 is 25 and that's 1 key starts a car

Answer: B)25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total number of keys in a key chain = 4   (Total outcomes)

The number of right key to start the car = 1    (Favorable outcome)

Now,  If a key is randomly chosen, then the probability that it starts the car  is given by :-

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25[/tex]

In percent, [tex]0.25\times100=25\%[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = 25%.
