A bag contains 13 dark chocolates, 16 white chocolates, and 11 milk chocolates. Maggie’s class teacher, Jill, is very strict, an
d the probability that she offers her students chocolates is 0.4. If Jill offers Maggie a chocolate from the bag, what is the probability that she randomly picks either a white chocolate or a milk chocolate? (NOTE: Add the probabilities of obtaining a white and milk chocolate individually)
We are given with a bag containing 13 dark chocolates, 16 white chocolates, and 11 milk chocolates. hence the sample space is 13 + 16 + 11 equal to 40 chocolates. The <span> probability that she randomly picks a white chocolate is 16/40 or 2/5 and that she picks a milk chocolate is 11/40. Hence the probability of picking either is (16+11) /40 equal to 27/40</span>
