Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The odds against an event is the ratio of the probability of the event not happening to the probability of the event happening. If the probability of rain is $ \frac{11}{19} $, then the probability of not raining is $ 1 - \frac{11}{19} = \frac{8}{19} $. Therefore, the odds against raining are 8:11.
