Question

an office hosts a lunch. 16 employees get a sandwich, 6 employees get pasta, 10 employees get salad, and 3 employees get tacos. find the probability that an employee did not get a sandwich. p(not a sandwich) = ? round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of employees

$16 + 6+10 + 3=35$

Step2: Calculate number of employees who did not get a sandwich

$35 - 10 = 25$

Step3: Calculate the probability

$P(\text{Not a Sandwich})=\frac{25}{35}=\frac{5}{7}\approx0.71$

Answer:

$0.71$
