Complete question:
Sarah is playing a board game. The probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn is 1/3. Which statement describes the probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn?
A. likely
B. certain
C.unlikely
D.impossible
Answer:
C. unlikely
Explanation:
If the probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn is 1 which is 100%, then it will be certain that she will score a point on her next turn.
Again, If the probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn is ¹/₂ which is 50%, then it will be likely that she will score a point on her next turn.
Also, If the probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn is ¹/₃ which is 33%, then it will be unlikely that she will score a point on her next turn.
Furthermore, If the probability that Sarah will score a point on her next turn is 0 which is 0%, then it will be impossible that she will score a point on her next turn.
Thus, the correct statement for the given question is "unlikely"
