To find the probability that the next customer will pay with a credit card, we need to calculate the total number of customers and then determine the proportion of customers who paid with a credit card.<br /><br />Total number of customers = 10 (cash) + 14 (debit card) + 38 (credit card) = 62<br /><br />Probability of paying with a credit card = Number of customers who paid with a credit card / Total number of customers<br />= 38 / 62<br />= 0.6129<br /><br />Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the probability is 0.61.
