Assume that each material in each category has an equal chance of being selected.

Categories:
(a) Type of wood used to make the cabinet: birch, maple, cherry.
     Each type of wood has a probability of 1/3 to be selected.
(b) Type of finish: transparent, semi-transparent.
    Each type of finish has a probability of 1/2 to be selected.
(c) Knob: bronze, steel, wood.
     Each material has 1/3 probability to be selected.

Each event (selecting material for the cabinet, for the finish, and for the knob) is an independent event.

Therefore
Probablity(birch wood AND bronze knob) = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9
Probability(wood knob) = 1/3
Probability(transparent stain) = 1/2
Probability(cheryy wood AND semi-transparent stain) = (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6

What is the product of 4 x 2/3
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

A good thing to understand is that when a whole number and a fraction are multiplied, the method is the same as multiplying 2 fractions. What that means is make the whole number into the numerator of a fraction and put a 1 where the denominator should be.

Solution

4/1 * 2/3 = 4*2 / 1 * 3 = 8/3
