Answer 1

D. none of these

Explanation:

There are a total of 11 chocolates in the box.

The probability of picking milk chocolate first is 4/11.

Now that you eat one, there are 10 chocolates in the box.

The probability of picking a dark chocolate second is 7/10.

This is a compound probability problem, so multiply the two probabilities together.

4/11 x 7/10 = 28/110

Reduce by 2/2

14/55 = .2545

D. none of these
