Question

Rachel has 10 sweets in a bag.

Answer 1

Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.713 = 71.3% probability that Rachel takes no more than three sweets from the bag.

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

• One sweet, the probability is 3/10.

• For two, the probability is 7/10 then 3/9.

• For three, it is 7/10 then 6/9 then 3/8.

So:

$p = \frac{3}{10} + \frac{7}{10} \times \frac{3}{9} + \frac{7}{10} \times \frac{6}{9} \times \frac{3}{8} = 0.713$

0.713 = 71.3% probability that Rachel takes no more than three sweets from the bag.
