Answer 1

We are given that a bag contains fruits. The probability of getting a banana and then getting a pear is equivalent of the individual probabilities, that is:

`P(\text{B and P)=P(B)xP(p)}`

Since he gets the banana first, the probability is:

`P(B)=(1)/(3+2+1+4)=(1)/(10)`

Now, the probability of getting a pear is given by the number of pears and the total number of fruits minus the banana, that is:

`P(p)=(4)/(3+2+4)=(4)/(9)`

Therefore, the total probability is:

`P(\text{B and P)=}((1)/(10))((4)/(9))=(4)/(90)=0.044`

The probability is 4.4%.
