Answer 1

In the question, we are given that the odds against winning a prize is given as

`13\colon1`

Step-by-step explanation

To find the the probability of winning a prize we will swap the position of the values in the ratio from loss : win to win: loss. This will give;

`1\colon13`

Therefore we wil have:

`(1)/(13)=0.077`
