Question

5 gummy worms. 4 are red, 1 is blue. Two gummy worms are chosen at random and not replaced. What is probability of two red gummy worms.

Answer 1

3/5

Explanation:

because there are more red than blue and the fraction is 3/5 and the probability to pick a red worm is a lot higher than the blue. well there are 4 red worms and 1 blue so it would be 3 red worms out of 5 in total. this is more than 1 blue over 5. 3/5 is more than 1/5

hope this helped

Answer 2

Answer: 3/5

Explanation:

Since 4 red gummies you have four out of 5 chance of getting red gummies. Without replacement there are now 4 gummies left and 3 red gummies. There for 3 out of 4 chance of getting another red gummy. Since at same time multiply. 4/5*3/4 = 12/20

Which can be simplified to 3/5
