Data:

10 green apples (g)

13 red apples (r)

Find the probability that a green apple is picked at random by an employee (Pg)


\begin{gathered} Pg=\frac{\#\text{green apples}}{\#\text{ total apples}}=\frac{\#\text{green apples}}{\#\text{ green apples + \#red apples}} \\ \\ Pg=(10)/(10+13)=(10)/(23)\approx0,435 \end{gathered}
