Question

A bowl contains 3 apples, 5 bananas, 4 oranges. Mary randomly selects one piece of fruit from the bowl. What is the probability that she selects and apple out of the bowl? Give the answer in the form of a decimal.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given,

n(S) = 12

n(A)=3

We have,

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

= 3 /12

= 1 /4

Answer 2

Explanation:

You have a little unclear question with "selects and apple out of the bowl?" I only chose apples (there are 3 of them)

`(3)/(12) =(1)/(4)` answer
