My Question
I was playing a game of tag with 4 of my friends Bob,Bruce,Billy, and Joe. We couldn't decide who would be it so we all would yell "not it" on the coun't of three, and whoever is the last person to yell it would have to be it. What is the probability that Bruce would be it?
Answere
P Bruce
TPO All of the friends =1/5
Percentage: 1/5=0.2 x 100= 20%
