Question

Elizabeth brought a box of donuts to share. there are​ two-dozen (24) donuts in the​ box, all identical in​ size, shape, and color. three are​ jelly-filled, 10 are​ lemon-filled, and 11 are​ custard-filled. you randomly select one​ donut, eat​ it, and select another donut. find the probability of selecting a jelly​-filled donut followed by a custard​-filled donut.

Answer 1

Jelly filled donut
$\frac{3}{24} = \frac{1}{8}$
Custard filled donut
$\frac{11}{24}$
After eating a jelly filled donut, total donut equals to 23, instead of 24.

Probability =
$\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{11}{23} = \frac{11}{184}$

Hope this helps. - M
