Mark throws a party and puts the names of the 17 friends at the party in a hat to determine who will win a prize. Mark’s friend Shauna draws a name from the hat, and the prize will go to the person whose name Shauna draws. Find the probability that Shauna will draw her own name.

Respuesta :

There are 17 names in the hat. Shauna's is one of those 17 names. The probability of Shauna picking her own name is therefore 1/17
