Answer: 29 = 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
first you would convert 1 2/3 into a improper faction. So you would multiply 1 and 3 then add 2 so 5/3 then multiply that by 1/2. You would multiply the numerators and denominators, so 5 times 1 and 3 times 2 which gives you 5/6.
Before Brian starts messing with them, there are 24 balls in the bag.
9 of them are white.
-- The probability that Brian draws a white ball from the bag is (9/24) .
If he has already drawn one white ball and put it aside, then there are
23 balls left in the bag, and 8 of them are white.
-- The probability that Brian draws a white ball from the bag this time
is (8/23) .
So the probability of white balls on both draws is
(9/24) x (8/23) =
(72/552) =
3 / 23 = about <em>13% </em>(rounded)
The third choice is different.
The other three you need to roll a 1 first.
