Answer:
[tex]\frac{7}{24}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A box of Godiva chocolates contains 45 identically wrapped chocolates. Ten are truffles, 21 have caramel fillings, the rest have walnuts.
Total number of chocolates = 45
total outcomes = 45
10 truffles, 21 caramel
number of walnuts = total chocolates - truffles - caramel
walnuts = 45 - 10 - 21= 14
Probability of selecting walnut = [tex]\frac{number of walnut}{total chocolates}[/tex]
P(walnut) = [tex]\frac{14}{45}[/tex]
Answer:
14/45
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likelihood or chance an event will occur.
Probability = Expected number of outcome/Total outcome
Total number of chocolate = Total outcome = 45
Before we can get the probability of a chocolate chosen at random of selecting a walnut, we need to know the number of chocolates that have walnuts.
Number of chocolates that have walnuts = 45-(10+21)
= 45-31
= 14
This means that our expected outcome is 14
Probability of a chocolate chosen at random of selecting a walnut = 14/45
