the probability of winning a particular game at the game place is 1/4. find the odds against winning the game

Answer 1

To find the odds against winning the game, we need to first calculate the probability of not winning the game.

The probability of not winning the game is 1 - 1/4 = 3/4.

Next, we can calculate the odds against winning the game by using the formula:

Odds against winning = Probability of not winning / Probability of winning = (3/4) / (1/4) = 3

Therefore, the odds against winning the game are 3:1. This means that for every 3 times you do not win the game, you will win it once.
