Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is greater than 204.3. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer 1

P(>204.3) = 0.5000

there are an infinite number of real numbers > 204.3, but an equally infinite number of real numbers < 204.3

chance of randomly selecting a number >204.3 is one half or 50%

or for 4 decimals: 50.0000%

P(exactly 204.3)=zero, yet it's possible. One of the paradoxes of the math of infinity. Cantor who developed the mathematics of infinity literally went insane thinking about it

But odds are there's more to this particular problem, some additional information such as a restriction on the range of values allowed for the randomly chosen number
