The probability that the break happened in the first 50 meters of the rope can be determined by dividing the length of the first 50 meters (50 m) by the total length of the rope (320 m).
Probability = Length of first 50 meters / Total length of the rope
Probability = 50 m / 320 m
Probability = 5/32
Therefore, the correct option is C. 5/32.
Probability = Length of first 50 meters / Total length of the rope
Probability = 50 m / 320 m
Probability = 5/32
Therefore, the correct option is C. 5/32.
