Chuck has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 8 mint sticks, 2 jelly treats, and 10 fruit tart chews. If he eats one piece every 10 minutes, what is the probability his first two pieces will both be mint sticks?

The answer is 16% because if you add all those candies up you’ll get 50 and 8/50 as a percentage is 16%
