Question

Manny packed three pairs of shorts (brown, white and blue), five shirts (green, blue, white, black and striped) and four pairs of shoes (tennis, flip-flops, sandals and boots). What is the probability he will random choose his brown shorts, blueshirt and boots as an outfit?

Answer 1

The probability is 1/60

Explanation:

Here, we are having a fashion probability to calculate.

We first need to calculate the individual probabilities.

Probability he will randomly choose a brown short = 1/3

Probability he will randomly choose a blue shirt = 1/5

probability he will randomly choose a boot to wear = 1/4

The probability he will random choose his brown shorts, blueshirt and boots as an outfit = probability of brown shorts * probability of blue shirt * probability of boots = 1/3 * 1/5 * 1/4 = 1/60
