  1. 1/100

    3/5

    1/13

    1/6


  2. 1 in 100 u will win raffle

    3 in 5 chances a girl will be chosen

    1 in 13 an ace will be delt

    7 occurs the most because the most numbers will make seven

    all ratios are in lowest form

  3. -5/500= 1/100= 1%chance.

    -15/25=3/5=60% chance.

    - 4/52= 1/13, or about a 7.5% chance.

    -there's 36 possibilities, all shown below(if you add 1+5=6, that's including all possibilities, the '1' is just basically a tally.)

    1+1

    1+2 : 1

    1+3: 11

    1+4: 111

    1+5:1 111

    1+6: 11111

    2+6: 11111

    3+6: 1111

    4+6:111

    5+6: 11

    6+6: 1

    There are two theoretical sums that will come up the most, 7 and 8.

    and they're both 6/36, or 1/6= 16% Chance of them coming up(either a 7 or 8)
