A baseball player hit 57 home runs in a season. Of the 57 home​ runs, 15 went to right​ field, 20 went to right center​ field, 12 went to center​ field, 8 went to left center​ field, and 2 went to left field.​ (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to left ​field? (b) Was it unusual for this player to hit a home run to left ​field?

Relax

Respuesta :

Place the part (amount going to the left field), over the total amount of homerun:

(a) 2/57 is your probability

(b) Divide 2/57

2/57 = 0.035, or 3.5%

YES, it is unusual for this player to hit a home run to left field, for he only has a 3.5% chance.

hope this helps
