To determine the likelihood of the meeting happening on Thursdays, we need to calculate the total number of possible meeting times on Thursdays and compare it to the total number of possible meeting times on both Wednesday and Thursday.
There are 3 possible meeting times on Thursdays: 2:45 p.m., 3:30 p.m., and 4:30 p.m.
There are a total of 6 possible meeting times when considering both Wednesday and Thursday (3 meeting times on Wednesday + 3 meeting times on Thursday).
So, the likelihood of the meeting happening on Thursdays is 3 out of 6, which simplifies to 1 out of 2. Converting this to a percentage, we get 50%.
Therefore, the likelihood of the meeting happening on Thursdays is 50%.
