Mckenzie Burnett · Answer 1

To find the probability of having a birdie on the 18th hole, you will create a fraction with the number of birdies to the total number of outcomes.

16 birdies

79 total

Divide these to find the probability.

16/79 = 0.20

There is an approximate 20% probability of getting a birdie based on these outcomes.
