The probability that the group will be all girls is 91/506

<h3 /><h3>Number of ways of selecting 3 students out of the total</h3>

Since there are 14 girls and 10 boys, the total number of students is 10 + 14 = 24.

So, the total number of ways of selecting 3 students from 24 is ²⁴C₃.

<h3 /><h3>Number of ways of selecting 3 girls out of 14</h3>

Also, the total number of ways of selecting a group of 3 of all girls out of the 14 girls is ¹⁴C₃ = 14

<h3 /><h3>Probability of all girls</h3>

So, the probability of selecting a group of 3 of all girls = number of ways of selecting 3 girls/total number of selections = ¹⁴C₃ ÷ ²⁴C₃

= 14 × 13 × 12/3! ÷ 24 × 23 × 22/3!

= 7 × 13/23 × 22

= 91/506

So, the probability that the group will be all girls is 91/506

A student measured the length of a certain bar as 20 cm, which exceeded the actual length by 10% the actual length of the bar wa
N76 [4]

Answer:

18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

20/10 = 2cm

So since 2x10 is 20 and it exceeded only 10%, we only subtract 2 from 20 which you leave you with 18cm.
