The probability density cannot be greater than 100% because nothing exists with a higher probability, except colloquially. We can say that we have a 110% certainty of something but that is only meant to express how certain we are. Because in reality nothing can be more than 100% in terms of probability density.

What are the traits of a probability density function?

Integrated over its domain, the pdf must equal 1.


Can probability be expressed as a percent?

Yes, probability can be expressed as a percent. It is common to express probabilities as a percentage, which is calculated by multiplying the probability by 100. For example, if the probability of an event is 0.25, it can also be expressed as 25%.


Does volume percent equal w percent?

No. Only if the two components have the same density (specific gravity), which is highly unlikely.

If 20 percent of people who enter store buy something and 3 people enter what is the probability of at least one sale?

The probability of at least one event occurring out of several events is equal to one minus the probability of none of the events occurring. This is a binomial probability problem. Go to any binomial probability table with p=0.2, n=3 and the probability of 0 is 0.512. Therefore, 1-0.512 is 0.488 which is the probability of at least 1 sale.
