Question

Edward’s brother has a box containing 3 chocolate donuts, 4 glazed donuts, 5 sprinkle donuts, and 3 blueberry donuts. What is the probability Edward will NOT pick a chocolate donut?

Answer 1

Explanation:

First find the probability that Edward will pick chocolate donut.

P (Picking a chocolate donut)

= 3 / 15

= 1 / 5

Therefore,

P (NOT picking a chocolate donut)

= 1 - 1/5

= 4 / 5
