The electricity for the living room in Mr. Brown's

house went off. He went to reset the circuit
breaker, but could not remember which of the
6 breakers served the living room. What is the
probability that he chooses the correct breaker on
his first try?

Answer: since there is 6 beaker and the probability of choosing the right one would be 1/6 since there’s 1 right beaker out of the 6 choices
