a random number generator is used to select an integer from 1 to 500 (inclusively). what is the probability of selecting the integer 441

Respuesta :

Answer:   1/500

Reason:

There are 500 integers in the set {1,2,3,...,499,500}. Only one of which is what we care about (the 441). So the chances of randomly getting "441" is 1/500.

In decimal form this is exactly 1/500 = 0.002 which converts to a 0.2% chance.
