Rachel is setting up tables for a party. Four of the tables are covered with red tablecloths, and eight of the tables are covered with white tablecloths. Guests will be randomly seated at the tables when they arrive. Each table can seat 8 guests. What is the probability that the first guest to arrive will be seated at a table with a red tablecloth?

Respuesta :

The probability that the first guest to arrive will be seated at a table with a red tablecloth is 1/3.

Why does the probability of the first guest falls into 1/3 chance?

Note that the tables= 12

It is made up of:

Red = 4

Blue = 8

When you solve 4/8, it will give you 1/2. That is 1 red and 2 blue

Based on the fact that there are 3 tables and there is only one 1 that has red color, we can therefore say that there is 1/3 probability that first guest to arrive will be seated at a table with a red tablecloth.
