Pablo, Mateus, and Ling are competing in a burrito-eating contest. Their probabilities of winning the contest are as follows:

(Pablo wins) = 0.75

P(Mateus wins) = 5%

P(Ling wins) = 1/5

Put the following event in order from least likely to most likely

P(Mateus wins), P(Ling wins), P(Pablo wins)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert all the probabalites to the same type of number so we can compare them easily. We'll choose to convert them to percentage.

P(Pablo wins) = 0.75 = 0.75 x 100% = 75%

P(Mateus wins) = 5%  (already in percentage)

P(Ling wins) = 1/5 = 20/100 = 20%

Arranging the percentages from least likely to most likely,

P(Mateus wins), P(Ling wins), P(Pablo wins)
