Given that Erica and AAron,are using lottery system to decide who will wash dishes every night.

They put some red and blue power chips and draw each one.  If same colour, Aaron will wash and if not same colours Erica will wash

If the game is to be fair, then both should have equal chances of opportunity for washing.

i.e. Probability for Erica washing = Prob of Aaron washing

i.e. P(different chips) = P(same colour chips)

Say there are m red colours and n blue colours.

Both are drawing at the same time.

Hence Prob (getting same colour) = (mC2+nC2)/(m+n)C2

Probfor different colour = mC1+nC1/(m+n)C2

The two would be equal is mC2 +nC2 = m+n

This is possible if mC2 =m and nC2 = n.

Or m = 2+1 =3 and n =3

That for a fair game we must have both colours to be 3.

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Answer below in description:</h3><h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Ths question is not complete but I will try my best to guide you through it so you can answer it. So what the question is asking you to do is that you have to plug in the coordinates into the equation. I don't want to give you an incorrect answer so I will explain it and you can do it yourself with the full question. First use the second equation as it is a full equation with an equal sign. Once plugged in you can find that c and d do not make the second equation true. A and B both complete the second equation. This means that either A or B is the answer. Since the first equation does not have an equal sign meaning it is not complete I can not answer it and I am sorry. But I have cut the answer down for you to A and B. If this answer helped you in the slightest please check out my channel The Game Rater. Thank you and I appreciate it.
