Question

Elizabeth brought a box of donuts to share. there are​ two-dozen (24) donuts in the​ box, all identical in​ size, shape, and color. three are​ jelly-filled, 10 are​ lemon-filled, and 11 are​ custard-filled. you randomly select one​ donut, eat​ it, and select another donut. find the probability of selecting a jelly​-filled donut followed by a custard​-filled donut.

Answer 1

Jelly filled donut

`(3)/(24) = (1)/(8)`
Custard filled donut

`(11)/(24)`
After eating a jelly filled donut, total donut equals to 23, instead of 24.

Probability =

`(1)/(8) * (11)/(23) = (11)/(184)`
