Question
If the probability of asthma in a patient is 10%, then the odds of asthma are:(Round your answer to 2 decimal places.).1.11.91SkipSubmit
Solution
The odds of an event is calculated as the probability of the event happening divided by the probability of the event not happening.
In this case, the probability of asthma is 10%, or 0.10 in decimal form. Therefore, the probability of not having asthma is 1 - 0.10 = 0.90.
So, the odds of asthma are calculated as follows:
Odds = Probability of Event / Probability of Not Event = 0.10 / 0.90 = 0.11 (rounded to two decimal places)
So, the odds of asthma are 0.11.
