Question

Gabriel has these cans of soup in his kitchen cabinet. • 2 cans of tomato soup • 3 cans of chicken soup • 2 cans of cheese soup • 2 cans of potato soup • 1 can of beef soup Gabriel will randomly choose one can of soup. Then he will put it back and randomly choose another can of soup. What is the probability that he will choose a can of tomato soup and then a can of cheese soup? Mathematics

Answer 1

2/10 (or 1/5 ) Times 2/10 (or 1/5)
This will equal a 1 out of 25 chance.

You take the number of items you are looking for ( for example, 2 Tomato Cans) Divided by the total items you have (All 10 cans that are a possibility). Then you take your probabilities, and multiply them.
