Question

A student is given an opportunity to select a crayon at random. If the probability of selecting an orange crayon is 4/3, which of the following statements is true.

Answer 1

From the information given,

probability of selecting an orange crayon = 4/3 = 1.33

Probability is between 0 and 1 where a probability of zero means that the event will not occur. A probability of 1 means that the event must occur. A probability of 1.33 is impossible because it is greater than 1. Thus, the correct option is
