Solution: Experimental probability is ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials of the experiment.
[tex]Probability =\frac{Number-of-times-an-event-occurs}{Total-number-of-trials}[/tex]
We are given:
Number of people struck by lightning in a particular city [tex]=97[/tex]
Total number of people in a particular city [tex]=1.3 million=1,300,000[/tex]
Therefore the experimental probability of being struck by lightning in this city is:
[tex]Probability=\frac{97}{1,300,000}[/tex]
[tex]=0.0000746[/tex]
