Question

theoretical probability: the chance of something happening. which of the following probabilities would tell us that something is very likely to occur? a probability of 1/2 such as 50/100 a probability that is close to 0, such as 1/100 a probability that is close to 1, such as 99/100

Explanation:

Step1: Understand probability scale

The closer a probability is to 1, the more likely an event is to occur. A probability of 0 means impossible and 1 means certain.

Step2: Analyze options

A probability of $\frac{1}{2}$ (or 50/100) is a 50 - 50 chance. A probability close to 0 (such as $\frac{1}{100}$) means the event is very unlikely. A probability close to 1 (such as $\frac{99}{100}$) means the event is very likely.

Answer:

A probability that is close to 1 such as 99/100
