Teesha is in the French club. There are 38 students in the club. The French teacher will pick 2 students at random to guide visiting students from France. What is the probablity that Teesha will not be picked as a guide?

The odds of getting chosen to guide visiting students are 2/38, or equivalent to 1/19. In order to find the odds of Teesha not being chosen simply do 1 - (1/19), which yields an answer of 18/19.

Hope this helps!

if the probability that she will be picked is 2/38 = 1/19
then the probability that she won't be picked is 36/38 = 18/19
