Given :
Liam owns a small business selling bagels. He knows that in the last week 60 customers paid cash, 24 customers used a debit card, and 24 customers used a credit card.
To Find :
Based on these results, express the probability that the next customer will pay with a debit card as a percent to the nearest whole number.
Solution :
Probability that next person will pay with a debit card in percentage is :
[tex]P = \dfrac{\text{Number of customer used debit card}}{\text{Total number of customers}}[/tex]
[tex]P = 100\times \dfrac{24}{60 + 24 + 24}\\\\P = 100 \times \dfrac{24}{108}\\\\P = 22 \ \%[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
