A..3/110,

b.8/165,

c. 1/64,

d.10/273

Answer 1

B.

Explanation:

Total coins = 11 ( 3 + 4 + 4 = 11).

The probability of picking a nickel first = 3/11 ( 4 nickels out of 11 total).

The probability of picking a dime second = 4/10 = 2/5 ( 3 dimes out of 10 coins left).

The probability of picking the third coin as a quarter = 4/9 ( 3 quarters out of 9 coins left).

The probability of picking all three in that order = 3/11 x 2/5 x 4/9 = 8/165
