In a study of brand recognition, 795 consumers knew of Amazon, and 10 did not. Use these results to estimate the probability that a randomly selected consumer will recognize Amazon. Report your answer as a decimal accurate to 3 decimal places.

The probability that a randomly selected consumer will recognize Amazon is 0.988.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given in the question is

Total number of consumers = 795 + 10 = 805

Consumers who knew of Amazon = 795

Consumers who did not know of Amazon = 10

The formula for calculating probability of an event A is:

P (A) = No. of favourable outcomes/Total no. of possible outcomes

P (Recognize Amazon) = No. of Consumers who knew Amazon/Total no. of consumers

P (Recognize Amazon) = 795/805

= 0.98757

P (Recognize Amazon) ≅ 0.988

The probability that a randomly selected consumer will recognize Amazon is 0.988.
