To find the probability that less than or equal to three shoplifting incidents but more than zero shoplifting incident will occur during a given day, we will add the probabilities for 1, 2, and 3 incidents.
Probability of 1 incident = 0.2
Probability of 2 incidents = 0.25
Probability of 3 incidents = 0.3
Adding these probabilities:
0.2 + 0.25 + 0.3 = 0.75
Therefore, the probability that less than or equal to three shoplifting incidents but more than zero shoplifting incident will occur during a given day is 0.75.
Probability of 1 incident = 0.2
Probability of 2 incidents = 0.25
Probability of 3 incidents = 0.3
Adding these probabilities:
0.2 + 0.25 + 0.3 = 0.75
Therefore, the probability that less than or equal to three shoplifting incidents but more than zero shoplifting incident will occur during a given day is 0.75.
