Respuesta :

Answer

Option B is correct.

Probability of an order being a soup = (3/12) = ¼ = 0.25

Probability of an order being a sandwiche = (5/12) = 0.417

Probability of an order being a salad = (4/12) = ⅓ = 0.333

Explanation

The probability of an event is calculated as the number of elements in the event divided by the total number of elements in the sample space.

Number of soups = 3

Number of sandwiches = 5

Number of salads = 4

Total number of food menu = 3 + 5 + 4 = 12

Probability of an order being a soup = (3/12) = ¼ = 0.25

Probability of an order being a sandwiche = (5/12) = 0.417

Probability of an order being a salad = (4/12) = ⅓ = 0.333

Hope this Helps!!!
