The following probabilities are given; choose the correct answer for that which is not possible.

  • A.0.15
  • B.2/7
  • C.7/5
  • D.none of these.

Answer: C

Every probability lies between 0 and 1 inclusive.

\[ 0 \leq P(E) \leq 1 \]

\[ 0.15 \ \checkmark \qquad \frac{2}{7} \approx 0.286 \ \checkmark \qquad \frac{7}{5} = 1.4 \ \times \]

\( \tfrac{7}{5} \) exceeds 1, so it cannot be a probability - nothing can be more certain than certain.
