The probability that both grab oranges would be = \frac{1}{36}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A bowl contains,

Apples = a = 5

Oranges = o = 2

bananas = b = 2

Total fruits in bowl = x = a + o + b = 5 + 2 + 2 = 9

Now, Christian and Aaron come home from school and randomly grab one fruit each.

The probability of first selecting orange would be = \frac{o}{b} = \frac{2}{9}

Now, the oranges left would be 2 - 1 = 1

and total fruits would be = 9 - 1 = 8

Hence, the probability of selecting second orange would be = \frac{1}{8}

Therefore, the probability that both grab oranges would be = \frac{1}{8} * \frac{2}{9} = \frac{1}{36}

eduard

Answer:

Candice ran 1/6 of a lap further than Chris.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how much further Candice runs than Chris, subtract the distance Chris runs from the distance Candice runs

so

\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3-2}{6}=\frac{1}{6}\ lap

therefore

Candice ran 1/6 of a lap further than Chris.
