Question 879439: if you are picking a number between 1 and 100 inclusive, what is the probability of picking a number which is not a multiple of 45? Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055) (Show Source):
There are only two multiples of 45, 45 itself and 90.
So there are 100-2 or 98 numbers which are not multiples of 45.
So the probability is 98 ways of succeeding out of 100.
Make that into a fraction then reduce the
fraction to .
