    1/9

    Step-by-step explanation:

    20 out of 180 flights are longer than 3 hours. So as a fraction that would be 20/180. However, this can be simplified to 1/9.

    1/9

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Number of flight in the airport = 180

    Number of flights which are longer than 3 hours = 20

    Probability of choosing a flight longer than 3 hours will be number of flights which are longer than three hours divided by the total number of flights in the airport

    That's

    20/180

    Divide both the numerator and denominator by 20

    1/9
