QUESTION:

Explain why the statement is incorrect: The probability of rain tomorrow is 150%.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

The statement is incorrect because probabilities are always measured on a scale from 0 to 1, or 0% to 100%. In the context of probability:

  • 0 or 0% represents an event that is certain not to happen.
  • 1 or 100% represents an event that is certain to happen.
