Question

The probability that tomorrow's temperature will be average is 55%. The probability that the temperature will be above average is 25%. Work out the probability that the temperature will be BELOW average

Answer 1

Probability that the temperature below average = 20%

Explanation:

Given:

Probability that tomorrow's temperature average = 55%.

Probability that the temperature above average = 25%

Find:

Probability that the temperature below average

Computation:

Probability that the temperature below average = 100% - Probability that tomorrow's temperature average - Probability that the temperature above average

Probability that the temperature below average = 100% - 55% - 25%

Probability that the temperature below average = 100% - 80%

Probability that the temperature below average = 20%
