Step-by-step explanation:
In probability,
"AND" means "multiplication"
"OR" means "ADDITION"
We want probability of Blue Pen and Yellow Highlighter. So we find individual probabilities and "MULTIPLY" them.
Let P(b) be probability of blue pen
Let P(y) be probability of yellow highlighter
We know probability of event is that event divided by total number of that
So,
There are 4 + 2 = 6 pens
Blue pen = 2
Hence,
P(b) = 2/6 = 1/3
And,
There are 5 highlighters
Yellow highlighter = 1
Hence,
P(y) = 1/5
Now,
P(b and y) = 1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15
Hence,
probability of grabbing blue pen and a yellow highlighter is
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) First, you need to take the whole numbers (9 and 1) and set them aside.
2.) Multiply the numerators from each fraction by one another. The numerators are the numbers on the top of the fraction. (Whatever you get on that will be the numerator of the answer!)
3.) Multiply the denominators by each other as well. The denominators are the numbers on the bottom. This will be the denominator of your answer.
4.) Now, you need to multiply your whole numbers (9 and 1) together.
5.) Then, simplify or reduce your answer. (this can't be simplified, as it is already in its simplest form)
Your answer will be 9 1/66.
Your work should look like this in the end:
