In a relay race, the probability of the Galaxy team winning is 22%. In another unrelated race, the probability of the Komets team winning is 47%. If the possibility of a tie is not an option, the probability of the Komets losing their game and the Galaxing winning theirs is ____%.

Respuesta :

multiply 22/100 by 47/100 to get 1034/100
Then divide 1034 by 100 to get a probability of 10.34 percent

The probability of Komets losing their game and Galaxy team winning theirs is 12%

What is probability?

'Probability is the study of the mathematics of calculating the likelihood that particular events will happen.'

According to the given problem,

The probability of Galaxy Team winning = 22%

                                                                   = [tex]\frac{22}{100}[/tex] = 0.22

The probability of Komets team winning = 47%

The probability of Komets team losing = ( 100 - 47 )%

                                                                = 53%

                                                                = [tex]\frac{53}{100}[/tex] = 0.53

Let Event A = Probability of Galaxy Team winning

     Event B = Probability of Komets team losing

We know P(A ∩ B) = P(A) . P(B)

                               = 0.22 * 0.53

                               = 0.1166 ≈ 0.12

                               = 12%

Hence, we can conclude that the probability of Galaxy winning their game and Komets losing theirs is 12%
