Q. March Madness Movies served 2323 lemonades out of a total of 111111 fountain drinks last weekend.\newlineBased on this data, what is a reasonable estimate of the probability that the next fountain drink ordered is a lemonade?\newlineChoose the best answer.\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 23111 \frac{23}{111} \newline(B) 2388 \frac{23}{88} \newline(C) 111111 \frac{111}{111} \newline(D) 88111 \frac{88}{111}
  1. Calculate Probability: To estimate the probability of the next fountain drink being a lemonade, we need to divide the number of lemonades served by the total number of fountain drinks served.
  2. Determine Lemonades Served: The number of lemonades served is 2323, and the total number of fountain drinks served is 111111. So, the probability (P)(P) can be calculated as P=number of lemonadestotal number of fountain drinksP = \frac{\text{number of lemonades}}{\text{total number of fountain drinks}}.
  3. Calculate Probability: Using the numbers given, we calculate P=23111.P = \frac{23}{111}. \newlineThis fraction cannot be simplified further, so the probability of the next fountain drink being a lemonade is 23111\frac{23}{111}.
