On a shelf at a gaming store, there are three Sony Playstations and eight Nintendo Wii consoles left. If one gaming system is selected at random, find the probability that the system is a Wii console.

Solution

probability that the system is a Wii console.= n(E) /N( S)

N( S) =total store = 11

N( E) = system is a Wii console=8
