Question

The table shows whether a bus pass is a child's or an adult's pass and whether it is a daily or monthly pass. One bus pass is randomly selected.

What is the probability that the pass is a daily pass?

Write the probability as a percent.

Round to the nearest tenth of a percent as needed.

Answer 1

31/61 or 50.8 percent
the daily passes added together are 31 passes for adults and children. Adding everything together gives us the denominator of the fraction 61. 31/61 = 50.8%.  

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability is $\frac{31}{51}$ or 60.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table shows the daily or monthly passes of children or adults. One bus pass is randomly selected.  

The daily passes are $8+23=31$

The monthly passes are $5+15=20$

Total passes in all are $31+20=51$

Now, we have to find the probability that the one randomly selected pass is a daily pass.

The probability is = $\frac{31}{51}$

In percentage it is = $\frac{31}{51} \times100$ = 60.78% or rounding to nearest tenth, we get 60.8%.
