A company tests a new product to make sure it will last for more than a year.

Product 1 had 950 out of 1,000 test items last for more than a year.

What is the probability Product 1 will last for more than a year using a fraction, decimal and percent? (round to nearest hundredth)

A company tests a new product to make sure it will last for more than a year.

Product 2 had 150 out of 200 test items last for more than a year.

What is the probability Product 2 will last for more than a year using a fraction, decimal or percent? (round to nearest hundredth)

A company tests two new products to make sure they will last for more than a year.

Product 1 had 950 out of 1,000 test items last for more than a year.
Product 2 had 150 out of 200 test items last for more than a year.

If you had to choose one of these two products to use for more than a year, which one is more likely to last? Explain your reasoning.
