Answer:
1/8 or 0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
So, I started solving this problem by writing all the possible options, then pairing them each up with a fruit and drink..
...But when I read the question again, I noticed I forgot to leave out the fruit, as this question states that you're trying to retrieve "a turkey sandwich and a bottle of water.."
Well, oof.
Despite that, I'm still giving this answer as if it never left out the fruit. So, let's see what we need to do.
To find all the possible lunch options, I started out by writing down one of our meats, Turkey. As per requested, I made every possible turkey combination that included a fruit and drink, which gave me this:
- Turkey, apple and water
- Turkey, orange and water
- Turkey, orange and juice
- Turkey, apple and juice
Same for the ham:
- Ham, apple and water
- Ham, apple and juice
- Ham, orange and juice
- Ham, orange and water
Putting these together, this gives up 8 different lunchbox combinations. If we're trying to get one and we randomly select it, then we have a 1/8 chance of grabbing the turkey sandwich and a bottle of water....
..and a fruit.
Hope this helped!
