As part of a promotion, people who participate in a survey are sent a free coupon for one of three winter activities: skiing, snow tubing, or sleigh rides. Participants have an equal chance of receiving each type of coupon. If 900 people participate, how many would be expected to receive a coupon for sleigh rides?

Since each participant has an equal chance of receiving a coupon for each activity, the probability of receiving a coupon for sleigh rides is 1/3. To find the expected number of people who will receive a coupon for sleigh rides, we multiply the probability by the total number of participants:
1/3 x 900 = 300
Therefore, we would expect 300 people to receive a coupon for sleigh rides.
1/3 x 900 = 300
Therefore, we would expect 300 people to receive a coupon for sleigh rides.
