People buy tickets and scratch off a special section on the ticket to reveal whether they have won a prize. One out of every five people who play get a free entry in a raffle. Two out of every fifteen people who play win a small cash prize. If you buy a scratch-off ticket, is it more likely that you will win a free raffle ticket or a cash prize? Explain your answer.
