Question

A restaurant offers two types of pizza

dough: sourdough and whole wheat.
The chefs can make three types of
pizza crust: thin, thick, or deep dish.
What is the probability that the next
customer will order a whole wheat
pizza with thick crust?

Answer 1

The probability of ordering a whole wheat pizza with thick crust is approximately 0.1667.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that the next customer will order a whole wheat pizza with thick crust, we need to consider the total number of pizza options and the specific combination we are interested in.

There are two types of pizza dough (sourdough and whole wheat) and three types of pizza crust (thin, thick, and deep dish). So, the total number of pizza options is 2 dough options multiplied by 3 crust options, which equals 6.

Since we are interested in the probability of ordering a whole wheat pizza with thick crust, which is just one specific combination out of the 6 total options, the probability is 1/6 or approximately 0.1667.

Answer 2

1/6 or 16.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 possible combinations, one of which being whole wheat with thick crust. Therefore there is a 1/6 chance.
