The probability that the favorite team of a randomly selected baseball fan is the Toronto Blue Jays is 1/3.
In the question, we are given that 15 people gathered to watch a baseball game. While talking, they realized that 5 of them were Toronto Blue Jays fans.
We are asked to find the probability that the favorite team of a randomly selected baseball fan is the Toronto Blue Jays.
We know that the probability of an event is the ratio of the total outcomes in favor of the event to the total number of possible outcomes.
The total number of possible outcomes in the given experiment = 15 {The number of people gathered}.
The total number of outcomes that favor the event = 5 {The number of Toronto Blue Jays fans}.
Thus, the probability of the event = 5/15 = 1/3.
Thus, the probability that the favorite team of a randomly selected baseball fan is the Toronto Blue Jays is 1/3.
