The probability that the player guesses the correct code on the first try is 0.001 or 0.1%.
Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1. Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.
In a game, a player has to guess a 3-digit code in an attempt to unlock a trunk containing a prize.
If the digits are to be chosen from the integers between 0 and 9 and they can be repeated.
The total number of outcomes will be
Total outcomes = 10³ = 1000
The player guesses the correct code on the first try. Then the favorable event will be
Favorable event = 1
Then the probability will be
[tex]\rm P = \dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\P = 0.001\\\\P = 0.1 \%[/tex]
The probability that the player guesses the correct code on the first try is 0.001 or 0.1%.
