1) 0.15  <-- a low probability, only happens 15% of the time.

2) -0.95  <--- not a probability, since probababilities are never negative.

3) 1.15   <--- not a probability, since probabilities are never greater than 1.

4) 0.85   <--- a high probability, happens 85% of the time.

Correct choice 4)
