Answer:

p(chocolate chip) = 2/7

p(oatmeal) = 7/27

Step-by-step explanation:

probability = favorable outcomes/total outcomes

First, add up all the cookies in the bag.

8 + 6 + 7 + 7 = 28

Next find the probability of selecting a chocolate chip cookie. Since there are 8 chocolate chip cookies and 28 cookies in the bag, create a fraction.

p(chocolate chip) = 8/28

reduce by 4

p(chocolate chip) = 2/7

Now that the cookie was eaten that will reduce the number of chocolate chip cookies to 7 and the overall number of cookies to 27.

There are 7 oatmeal cookies and 27 total cookies, so create the fraction.

p(oatmeal) = 7/27

Samuel rolls a fair dice 100 times. How many times will he get a 1 or a 5?
timama [110]
Out of 6, the chance for a 1 or a 5 is 2. Probability is the something is the number of desired outcomes over the number of all possible outcomes. Therefore the probability is 2/6 to roll a 1 or a 5. From here, we need to find how much 2/6 of 100 is.
2/6 = x/100

200/6 = x
33.3 = x
Since its impossible to roll part of a dice, we'll round to a whole number. 33.3 rounds to 33, therefore he will roll a 1 or a 5 33 times.
