Jessica has a bag with 2 mint sticks, 4 jelly treats, and 14 fruit tart chews. If she eats one piece every 9 minutes, what is the probability her first two pieces will be a fruit tart chew and a jelly treat and represent as a percent to the nearest tenth if necessary?

if you add all the numbers to gather you get 20 you said the first two fruit tart chew and a jelly treat what you do after you add all the numbers together is you look at what you trying to find out you you are trying to find out the fruit tart chew and jelly treat so you have 4 jelly treats and 14 fruit tar chew you add them together and you get 18 next you divide 18 by 2 and you get 0.9
so your answer is 0.9
hope it helps and hope get an a i wish you the best of luck
