Question

the probability of choosing a green grape out of the bag that contains red and green grapes without looking is $\frac{11}{15}$. which term best describes this probability?
$circ$ impossible
$circ$ unlikely
$circ$ likely
$circ$ certain

Explanation:

Step1: Understand probability terms

• Impossible: Probability = 0.
• Unlikely: Probability close to 0 (e.g., < 0.5).
• Likely: Probability close to 1 (e.g., > 0.5).
• Certain: Probability = 1.

Step2: Analyze given probability

Given probability of green grape is $\frac{11}{15} \approx 0.733$, which is greater than 0.5.

Answer:

likely (the option corresponding to "likely")
