Question

an amusement park has 2 drink stands and 18 other attractions. what is the probability that a randomly selected attraction at this amusement park will be a drink stand? write your answer as a fraction or whole number. p(drink stand) =

Explanation:

Step1: Find total attractions

Total attractions = drink stands + other attractions = \( 2 + 18 = 20 \)

Step2: Calculate probability

Probability of drink stand = \( \frac{\text{Number of drink stands}}{\text{Total attractions}} = \frac{2}{20} = \frac{1}{10} \)

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{10}\)
