Jason and Jenny are out on a lunch date. Jason gives Jenny a bouquet that has 4 roses, 3 carnations, and 4 orchids. They decide that Jenny gets to choose their lunch order if the flower she randomly picks from the bouquet is a carnation or a rose. What is the probability that Jenny gets to choose lunch?

4 + 3 + 4 = 11
There are 7 flowers that Jenny can pick in order to order lunch.
Therefore the probability is 7/11
