Question

In a game you are required to pull a letter from a bag that contains one of each vowel in the alphabet (A, E, I, O, and U) and then roll a standard die. What is the probability you will draw the letter E and roll an even number?
A) 0.007
B) 0.100
C) 0.125
D)0.200

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

0.100

Answer 2

You have two conditions, the letter you draw must be E and the number you roll must be even, and both of those conditions have to happen at the same time (aka they're dependent on each other). Because of that, you have to multiply the probability you'll get the first condition by the probability you get the second one.

You have 5 vowels, so the probability of drawing E, one of the vowels, is 1/5.

You have 6 numbers on your standard die. Three of the numbers, 2, 4, 6 are even. The probability of rolling an even number is 3/6 = 1/2.

Multiply these two probabilities together to get the probability of both of those happening at the same time:
(1/5)*(1/2) = 1/10 = 0.100
