Question

basket contains the following pieces of fruit: 3 apples, 2 oranges, 2 bananas, 2 pears, and 5 peaches. Jonas picks a fruit at random and does not replace it. Then Beth picks a fruit at random. What is the probability that Jonas gets a peach and Beth gets an apple?

Answer 1

About 2.7 % probability

Explanation:

Count the total number of fruits.

3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 5 = 14 total

P = Pr(Jonas gets peach, Beth gets apple) = (5/14) * (3/13) = 15/182

P = 0.0274725
