A city held a bike parade. 52 bikers rode in the parade, and 8 of them rode a fixed-gear bicycle. What is the probability that a randomly chosen bike in the parade was a fixed-gear bicycle?

Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

P(fixed-gear bicycle) =

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the probability by dividing the number of fixed gear bikers by the total number of bikers in the parade.

Since there are 8 fixed gear bikers and 52 bikers in total, this will be found by dividing 8 by 52.

So, the probability as a fraction is

This can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4:

=

So, the probability is

the answer is c. 23/3
