Question

A computer chooses a random number between 1 and 50. What is the probability that you will guess the same number that the computer chose in 1 try?​

Answer 1

The probability of guessing the same number as the computer in 1 try is 1/50 or 2%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability of guessing the same number as the computer in one try, we need to know the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes. In this case, the computer randomly chooses a number between 1 and 50. So, there are 50 possible outcomes.

To have a favorable outcome, you need to guess the same number as the computer. Since the computer chooses one number, there is only 1 favorable outcome.

Therefore, the probability of guessing the same number as the computer in 1 try is:

Probability = (Number of Favorable Outcomes) / (Number of Possible Outcomes)

Probability = 1 / 50

Probability = 0.02 or 2

Answer 2

The probability between 1-50 is 19 let me know if it’s correct
