Write your answer as a percent.
Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.
First choice is "1 of 10 grape lollipops from 35 lollipops" The probablity is 10/35 = 2/7 Second choice is "1 of 18 apple lollipops from 34 lollipops" So probablity is 18/34 = 9/17 Between this is AND so you have to these probablities multiply: P(A) = 2/7 * 9/17 = 18/119 P(A) = 18/119 * 100% = 1800/119 % It is approximaly <span>15,1 %.
