The chance of women getting breast cancer is 1 out of 8. at this rate how many women in a classroom of 32 women would be expected to come down with breat cancer in her lifetime?

The general probability is 1/8. For it to be applicable to 32 women, one must multiply 4 to the numerator and denominator.

The final probability would be (1x4)/(8x4) which is 4/32.

Therefore, 4 women would be the answer.

the answer is y = 11.54

hope this : )
