Answer:

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Odds in favor of event = 2 : 9 or 2/9

Let,

These odds are out of 1.

The odds against the event would be

Odds against = 1 - 2/9

Odds against = [tex]\frac{9-2}{9}[/tex]

Odds against = [tex]\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

Therefore,

Odds against the events are 7/9.
