The school carnival committee sold a total of 200 tickets for the grand prize drawing. Sue bought enough tickets so that she had a 20 percent chance of winning the grand prize. How many tickets did Sue buy?

40 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total tickets sold = 200

Sue's chances of winning = 20% = 0.2

Number of tickets bought by Sue :

P(winning) = 20%

P(winning) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome = number of tickets bought by Sue

Total possible outcomes = total number of tickets sold

0.2 = x / 200

x = 0.2 * 200

x = 40
