Answer:

Sales of the chocolate ice cream is 45%, 30% for strawberry and 25% (100%-45%-30%) of vanilla.

Percentages of cone sales for chocolate, strawberry and vanilla are 75%, 60% and 40%respectively.

A. Probability chocolate chosen: 45%=0.45

B. Probability strawberry chosen: 30%=0.30

C. Probability vanilla chosen:25%=0.25

D. Probability ice cream on a cone: 75%×45%+60%×30%+40%×25%

=0.75×0.45+0.60×0.30+0.40×0.25

=0.3375+0.18+0.1

=0.6175

E. Probability ice cream in a cup: 1- Probability ice cream in a cone

=1-0.6175

=0.3825

Probability that the ice cream sold on a cone and was strawberry flavoured is : 30%×60%

=0.30×0.60

=0.18
