Question

Andy randomly selects an outfit to go to school. He can choose from 4 shirts: blue stripes, red stripes, black or white stripes. He can choose from 3 pairs of shorts: brown, blue or plaid.

Answer 1

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that Andy chooses a striped shirt and a pair of blue shorts is:

$\frac{3}{4} * \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}$

The probability that Andy chooses a striped shirt and pair of tan or plaid shorts is:

$\frac{3}{4} * (\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3}) = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}$
