Question

Carmen said that any time in the numerator of a fraction is less than the denominator it is ann unlikely event. is Carmen correct? explain.

Answer 1

No, Carmen is not correct. The likelihood of an event occurring is not determined by the size of the numbers in the numerator and denominator of a fraction. The probability of an event happening is determined by the ratio of the numerator to the denominator. If the numerator is smaller than the denominator, it simply means the probability is less than 1, but it does not make it an unlikely event.
