Urn I contains three red chips and one white chip. Urn II contains two red chips and two white chips. One chip is drawn from eac

h urn and transferred to the other urn. Then a chip is drawn from the first urn. What is the probability that the chip ultimately drawn from urn I is red?

Answer:

0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The Probability of Chips in Urn 1

P(R) = 3/4

P(W) = 1/4

The Probability of Chips in Urn 2

P(R) = 1/2

P(W) = 1/2

The problem can be solved using probability tree method. The probability tree of the given question is attached with the answer.

The Probability tree shows the exchange of chips firstly and then the final probability of Red Chips and White Chips in Urn 1.

To find the final answer we can sum up the probabilities of the branches which are ticked in the diagram.

Probability of Branch 1 (ticked in diagram)

3/4 x 3/5 x 3/4 = 0.3375

Probability of Branch 2 (ticked in diagram)

3/4 x 2/5 x 2/4 = 0.15

Probability of Branch 3 (ticked in diagram)

1/4 x 2/5 x 1 = 0.1

Probability of Branch 4 (ticked in diagram)

1/4 x 3/5 x 3/4 = 0.1125

Final Probability = 0.3375 + 0.15 + 0.1 + 0.1125

= 0.7 Answer

Choose the set of equivalent fractions that correctly uses the LCD for these fractions 3/4 and 1/6
valina [46]

Answer: 9/12, 2/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing multiples of 6 and 4

4: 4, 8, 12

6: 6, 12, 18

Did you see the multiple that both numbers have? Yup, it's 12. So that has to be your denominator for both fractions. This is because you have to have the <u>LEAST</u> COMMON Denominator (LCD). So both numbers have 12 in common as one of their multiples and, it's the least common one because there are no numbers that come before it that are common for both numbers. Now, you just have to change the denominators of both fractions into 12. To do that to 3/4, just multiply the top and bottom by 3 to get 9/12. To do that to 1/6, just multiply the top and bottom by 2 to get 2/12.  Hope this helps!

NOTE: REMEBER THAT WHATEVER YOU DO TO THE TOP OF A FRACTION, YOU HAVE TO DO IT TO THE BOTTOM TOO (AND VICE VERSA)
