Question

which value cannot represent the probability of an event occurring?
0.01
\\(\frac{2}{85}\\)
62.5%
1.1

Explanation:

Step1: Recall probability range

The probability of any event must satisfy $0 \leq P \leq 1$, where $P$ is the probability value.

Step2: Evaluate each option

• $0.01$: $0 \leq 0.01 \leq 1$, valid.
• $\frac{2}{85} \approx 0.0235$: $0 \leq 0.0235 \leq 1$, valid.
• $62.5\% = 0.625$: $0 \leq 0.625 \leq 1$, valid.
• $1.1$: $1.1 > 1$, violates the range.

Answer:

D. 1.1
