Answer:

The total probability is \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A box contains 4 chocolates and 1 fruit chew and whoever draws the fruit chew wins.

There are 5 choices in total and we need to find the probability that Chloe wins if Clark draws first.

So the possible outcomes are:

Case I:

Clark draws chocolates first and Chloe draws fruit.

\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{5}

Case II:

Clark draws chocolates, Chloe draws chocolates, now its Clark's turn and he draws chocolates and Chloe draws fruit.

\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{5}

Hence, the total probability is \frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{5}

Which two rooms have an
alexgriva [62]

Answer: room 101 and room 107

Step-by-step explanation:

In room 101, the ratio of boys to girls is 16:12. This is further simplified to its lowest fraction by dividing by 4. It becomes 4:3

In room 104, the ratio of boys to girls is 20:9. This cannot be further simplified to its lowest fraction.

In room 107, the ratio of boys to girls is 12:9. This is further simplified to its lowest fraction by dividing by 3. It becomes 4:3

Therefore, room 101 and room 107 have the same ratio.
