Number of inhabitable planets around stars in the milky way galaxy

Probability of primitive life existing elsewhere in the milky way galaxy

AND

The numerical value given by the Drake equation is:

exactly 10

has a lower limit of 1 but could be much larger than 10

could be almost any value from zero up to a billion

is generally agreed to be around 10, certainly between 8 and 12

Explanation / Answer

The Drake Equation attempts to predict the:

Number of intelligent civilizations present in the entire Universe.

The numerical value given to the Drake Equation is:
