Is my Answer correct?
The answers are all correct.
Yes, your answers are correct!
To explain how to get these probabilities as decimals, percentages, and fractions:
C) A "50-50" chance means that there are equal chances of the event occurring or not occurring. Therefore, the probability can be written as 0.5 as a decimal, 50% as a percentage, and 50/100 or 1/2 as a fraction.
D) The statement "will happen about 3 times out of 4" means that the event has a higher chance of occurring. So, the probability of this event can be written as 0.75 as a decimal, 75% as a percentage, and 3/4 as a fraction.
E) The statement "has 2 chances in 3 of happening" indicates that out of three possible outcomes, the event has a chance of happening in two of them. Therefore, the probability can be written as 0.66 as a decimal, 66% as a percentage, and 2/3 as a fraction.
