Your class is having a raffle for a new graphing calculator. You bought 2 raffle tickets while everyone else in your class bought 1. There are 15 people in your class in addition to you. What is the probability that you will win the calculator?

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

so, there are 14 people with 1 ticket each, and I have 2 tickets.

that means there are 16 tickets (14+2) in the raffle.

each ticket has therefore a winning probability of 1/16.

I have 2 tickets, so my winning probabilty is therefore

1/16 + 1/16 = 2/16 = 1/8
