Question

pre-algebra !!!. A class contains 3 female and 9 male students. Find the probability that a student chosen at random is a male, and then a second student chosen at random from the remaining students is also male. 9/16 3/4 1/2 6/11 None of the above

Answer 1

The answer is 6/11 aka D

Answer 2

D

Explanation:

The first student is from a class of 12.

The first student = 9/12 for the fist male.

The second male is 8 out of 11.

The probability of both being males is

9/12 * 8/11 = 3/4 * 8/11 = 6/11
