Question

The school chef put 3 apple pies, 2 blueberry pies, 4 peach pies, and 1 lemon pie in the oven to bake. At the start of lunch she randomly takes out one pie and does not put it back. 20 mins later she randomly selects another pie. What are the chances of her selecting a peach pie and then a lemon pie? Write your answer as a percent.

Answer 1

In total there are 10 pies. Probability of a peach pie=4/10, probability of a lemon pie=1/10
4/10 x 1/10 = 25%
