Determine the experimental probability of not selecting a diamond.
P(not diamond) = 82.5%
P(not diamond) = 72.5%
P(not diamond) = 10%
P(not diamond) = 7%



Answer :

Answer:  82.5%  (choice A)

Explanation

Out of the 40 cards drawn, 7 are diamonds. The remaining 40-7 = 33 cards are not a diamond.

33/40 = 0.825 = 82.5% of her cards are not a diamond.
