Question

Mr. Hanson has 3 lemons and 1 lime in a bag. He selects one piece of fruit without looking. What is the probability that Mr. Hanson will select a lemon?
A. 1/4
B. 1/3
C. 2/3
D. 3/4

Answer 1

The probability that Mr. Hanson will pick a lemon is d. 3/4. 

3 + 1 = 4. The 3 lemons make up 3/4 of the fruit, so he has a 3/4 chance, or 75% chance of picking a lemon.
