Question

A box holds 24 containers of yogurt. Each box has 4 flavors with 6 containers of each flavor. If you choose three yogurts without looking and don't replace them, what is the probability of choosing three of the same flavor

Answer 1

3/6 or 1/2 (50%)

Explanation:

There is 6 containers of each flavor, correct?

If you pick 3 of the same flavor, 3/6, it would look like that fraction.

If you simplify it, It'd be 1/2.

If you want it as a percent, It'd be 50%.

As a decimal, It's .50.
