There are 50 ways you can pick 1 item from a set of 50 items.
\n" ); document.write( "We're told that 4 of the 50 are defective, so 4/50 are bad.
\n" ); document.write( "So, picking 1 item, you would have a 4/50 or 1/12.5 or an 8% chance of drawing a bad one.
\n" ); document.write( "OR
\n" ); document.write( "You have a 46/50 chance of picking a good one, or 92%. That means the chance of drawing a bad one is 100% - 92% = 8%.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done
