Question: A bookstore sells random wrapped books, where the reader does not know the genre before purchasing. Each wrapped book is from one of 6 genres. Jamal is looking for a romance novel. What is the probability that Jamal's book is a not a romance novel? Write your answer as a percentage, rounded to the nearest tenth.
If Jamal is looking for a romance novel, and there are 6 genres in total, then there is 1 genre he wants (romance) and 5 genres he doesn't want. The probability of picking a non-romance novel would be: (number of non-romance genres) / (total number of genres) = 5/6 To convert this to a percentage, multiply by 100: (5/6) * 100 = 83.33% Rounded to the nearest tenth, the probability that Jamal's book is not a romance novel is 83.3%.
