NO, but that is a great question since probability is often expressed as a fraction. Here is the difference. If P(x) is the probability that even x happens, this value must be between 0 and 1. So fractions such as 1/2 or 2/1112 are all fine. Many fractions, such as 4/3 cannot be a probability since they are greater than one. Similarly, -1/2 cannot be a probability value since it is less than 0/

How do you minnous fractions?

Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions. If the fractions have the same denominator, you subtract the numerators. If the fractions have different denominators, you have to convert to a common denominator first.Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions.

What is the probability that you will get a fraction greater the 316 over 17?

The answer depends on what population of fractions you have in mind. If considering all fractions, the answer is 1.


What is the difference between a probability and a fraction?

The probability is always a fraction except when it is 0 or 1. If a probability = 1 then it will definitely happen. If the probability is 0 then it will not happen. If you toss a fair coin the probability of heads is 1/2, and the probability of tails is 1/2. These fractions are representations of the probabilities. Not all fractions are representative of probabilities. Fractions can be used to represent a portion of a whole. Like what portion of a class is boys, and what portion is girls: If there are 8 boys and 7 girls, then the 8/15 of the class is boys, and 7/15 of the class is girls.
