Answer: 0.62 
 
 
Step-by-step explanation: 
 
Total people= 47 
 
Let A be the event of selecting person was interested in trying the new drink. 
 
Person not interested in trying a sample of a new soft drink (nA')=18 
 
Person interested in trying a sample of a new soft drink (nA)=47-18=29 
 
Thus probability that a randomly selected person was interested in trying the new drink
P (A) = 29/41 = 0.6170 (or) 0.62 
 
 
 
Thus, probability that a randomly selected person was interested in trying the new drink is 0.62.
47-18=29 people interested in the new drink 
29/47=0.617 
0.617*100=61.7% chance
