Question

The numbers 4 through 14 are placed in a

bowel and drawn at random then replaced
after being drawn. What is the probability of
drawing the number 14 and then a number
less than 12?​

Answer 1

The probability of drawing the number 14 is 1/10 (because there are 10 different numbers to pick from). The probability of drawing a number less than 12 is 8/10 (or 4/5 simplified). Multiply the fractions: 1/10 *4/5 = 4/50. Simplify to 2/25. The probability of drawing 14 and then a number less than 12 is 2/25.
