A bag contains 40 tickets, each numbered between 1-40. If a ticket is drawn at random, find the probability of it being odd or less than 26

you have a 50% chance of getting an odd number and a 60% chance of getting a number less than 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between 1 and 40 there are 20 odd numbers

20: 40 x 100=50, This means you have a 50% (20:20) chance of getting an odd number.

Between 1 and 40 there 25 numbers less than 26

15:25 x 100=60, This means you have a 60% (25:15) chance of getting a number under 26.
