Answer 2

Using the data presented in the problem, you are asked to predict the probability that future customers will cancel their preorders. To find the probability, you have to divide the number of people who cancelled their preorders by the total number of people who preordered.

35 people / 140 people = .25 or 25% probability that the future customers will cancel their preorders.
