Consider the following compound lottery, described in words: "The probability that the price of copper increases tomorrow is objectively determined to be 0.5. If it increases, then tomorrow I will flip a coin to determine a monetary payout that you will receive: if the flip is Heads, you win $100, while if it is Tails, you win $50. If it does not increase, then I will roll a 10-sided die (assume each side is equally likely to be rolled). If the die roll is a 4 or lower, you will win $100. If it is a 5, then you will win $200, and if it is a 6 or greater, you will win $50." Fill in the blanks below for the reduced lottery that corresponds to this compound lottery (write in decimals). R= ( , $50; , $100; , $200)

Probability can be characterized as the proportion of the number of positive results to the absolute number of results of an occasion. For an investigation having n number of results, the number of good results can be meant by x. The recipe to compute the probability(likelihood) of an occasion is as per the following.
Probability(Event) = Favorable Outcomes/Total Outcomes = x/n
