After the introduction of a new soft drink, 200 people are asked to take a taste test to see how it is being received. Of those who participated, 48 said they preferred the new soft drink, 112 preferred the old soft drink, and 40 could not tell any difference. What is the probability that a person in this survey, chosen at random, preferred the new soft drink

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The possibility is 48/200

The probability of people preferred the new soft drink is 6/25.

To find the probability.

What is probability?

probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of possible outcomes.

Given that:

Total number of people taste test=200

Number of people who participated new soft drink=48

Number of people who participated old soft drink=112

Number of people who  participated could not tell any difference=40

So, the probability of people preferred the new soft drink=

favorable outcome/total number of outcome

probability of people preferred the new soft drink=48/200

probability of people preferred the new soft drink=6/25

So, the probability of people preferred the new soft drink is 6/25.
