If one out of every thirty cars is likely to be involved in an accident, what is the probability that a car accident will not occur? Explain.
What will be an ideal response?
(i) 96.7 percent. (ii)The probability that a car is likely to be in an accident is equal to one divided by thirty: 1/30=0.033. Given that the probabilities of all possible outcomes need to equal one, you can subtract the probability of being involved in a car accident (3.3%) from one to get the probability of not being in a car accident: 1.000-0.033=0.967.
