ANSWER ASAPP PLSSS

There are 7 options on the dessert menu at a restaurant. Ellen and Connie like all of the choices equally, so they each choose a dessert at random from the menu. What is the probability that Ellen will choose apple pie and Connie will choose strawberry cheesecake for dessert? Express your answer as a decimal. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest thousandth.

Answer 1

The answer is 1/7*1/7=0.02040817326

Answer 2

1/7 * 1/7 = 0.02040816326

Explanation:

Probability of selecting 1 of the 7 menu items is P(1 item) = 1/7

Thus, probability that they select the items from menu written in the question is; P(both select 1 item) = 1/7 * 1/7 = 0.02040816326
