Question

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given information-

We have given that on a particular multiple choice question 96% of the students answered correctly.

So, the probability of the students answered correctly = 96/100 = 0.96

P (students answered correctly) = 0.96

We have to find the probability that a randomly selected student answered the question incorrectly.
