Answer: Our required probability is 0.044.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of customers who have entered the drawing = 17
Number of customers live in the town of Gaston = 5
Number of customers live in Pike = 4
Number of customers live in Wells = 8
The first customer will be selected and then second customer will be selected from the remaining .
Probability of getting first customers are Pike residents =
Probability of getting second customers are Pike residents =
So, the probability that both customers selected are Pike residents are
Hence, our required probability is 0.044.
