Question

A class consists of 12 girls and 18 boys. A president, vice-president and treasurer are chosen based on the number of votes. Find the probability of selecting a president, vice-president and treasurer where all 3 are different boys from the class.

Answer 1

18/30 and you simplify it and get 3/5

Answer 2

Hello!

As you can see, there are 30 total students. We have the probability of selecting 3 boys. This would be 18/30, which simplifies to 3/5.

Therefore, the probability is 3/5 or 60%.

I hope this helps!
