The probability that the next person will be assigned an orchestra seats is 2/5.

What is Probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

Here, Available Orchestra seats = 8

            Balcony seats = 12

      Total available seats = 12 + 8 = 20

  Probability = Favorable Outcome / Total Outcome

  Probability of getting orchestra ticket = 8/20

                                                                 = 2/5

Thus, the probability that the next person will be assigned an orchestra seats is 2/5.
