Answer: 0.1282

Explanation:

Total number of possible outcome( total candidates) = 13

Total number of men = 13 - 8 = 5

Total number of women = 8

Number of candidates to be selected = 2

Find the probability that both are men :

Probability of 1st candidate being a male = required outcome ÷ total possible outcome = 5/13

Probability of second candidate being a male, means we now have 4 men left and a total of 12 = 4/12

Therefore, P = (5/13) × (4/12)

P = (5/13) ×(1/3) = 5/39 = 0.1282

= Percent of items in inventory × No. of items

Units to be counted everyday:

=\frac{A\ items}{workings\ days} + \frac{B\ items}{workings\ days} + \frac{C\ items}{workings\ days}

=\frac{680}{22} + \frac{2,108}{61} + \frac{4,012}{124}

      = 30.90 + 34.55 + 32.35
