Question

in a popular online role playing game, players can create detailed designs for their characters \costumes,\ or appearance. may sets up a website where players can buy and sell these costumes online. information about the number of people who visited the website and the number of costumes purchased in a single day is listed below.

73 visitors purchased no costume.
92 visitors purchased exactly one costume.
2 visitors purchased more than one costume.

based on these results, express the probability that the next person will purchase no more than one costume as a fraction in simplest form.

answer attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of visitors

The total number of visitors is the sum of those who purchased no costume, exactly one costume, and more than one costume. So, $73 + 92+2=167$.

Step2: Calculate number of visitors who purchased no more than one costume

The number of visitors who purchased no more than one costume is the sum of those who purchased no costume and those who purchased exactly one costume. So, $73 + 92 = 165$.

Step3: Calculate the probability

The probability $P$ that the next person will purchase no more than one costume is the number of favorable outcomes (purchased no more than one costume) divided by the total number of outcomes (total visitors). So, $P=\frac{165}{167}$. Since 165 and 167 have no common factors other than 1, the fraction is in simplest form.

Answer:

$\frac{165}{167}$
