What is the probability that the card that Fiji turns over has a rose on it? (5 points)
A. 3/6
B. 4/6
C. 4/7
D. 3/7

Answer 1

There are 4 cards with a picture of a rose and 3 cards with a picture of a daisy.

After one rose card is removed, the remaining cards are 3 cards with a picture of a rose and 3 cards with a picture of a daisy. A card is chosen at random,

the probability that the chosen card has rose on it is

$\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$.

The correct choice is (A).
