Question

. After reading to a kindergarten class at the library, Tobey gives out stickers. He has 9

zoo animal stickers and 16 scratch-n-sniff stickers. If Tobey gives the stickers out at
random, what is the probability that the first child gets a scratch-n-sniff sticker and
the second child gets a zoo animal sticker?

Answer 1

If Tobey gives the stickers out at random, what is the probability that the first child gets a scratch-n-sniff sticker and the second child gets a zoo animal sticker?

P(zoo 2nd | scratch 1st) = (9/25)(16/24) = (9/25)(2/3) = 6/25
