The answer is 1 percent because 50 x 100 is 5,000, so that means 50 is 1%.

Answer:

Hence, the probability of winning a t-shirt is:

1%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

During each sports event the arena holds a competition to win a t-shirt.

5,000 people attend a match and 50 people win a t-shirt

We have to find the probability of winning a t-shirt.

Let P denotes the probability of an event.

Number of favorable events=Number of person winning t-shirt=50.

Also total number of outcomes=Total number of people attending an event=5000.

Hence,

P( winning t-shirt)=Number of favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

                           =50/5000

                          =1/100

                         = 1%.

Hence, the probability of winning a t-shirt is:

1%
