Identify Odd Numbers: Let's identify the odd numbers in the range from 1 to 5. The odd numbers are 1, 3, and 5.
Calculate Probability: Now, we need to calculate the probability of getting an odd number in a single trial. There are 3 odd numbers out of 5 possible outcomes, so the probability of getting an odd number is 53.
Find Expected Value: To find the expected number of times Leo will get an odd number in 400 trials, we multiply the total number of trials by the probability of getting an odd number. The expected value is 400×53.
Perform Calculation: Performing the calculation: 400×(53)=400×0.6=240.
