◦•●◉✿ αиѕωєя ✿◉●•◦

Total no. Of sweets = 10

So,

Option a) A Chew's probability = 5:10 = 1:2

b) A Toffee's Probability= 3:10

c) a chocolate's probability = 2:10 = 1:5

Answer 2

Answer:

Total no. of sweets = 10

P (E) = No. of favourable outcomes/ no. of possible outcomes.

(A) P(sweet taken out is a chew) = no. of chew/ no. of total sweets

= 5/10

= 1/2

(B) P (sweet taken out is a toffee) = no. of toffee/no. of total sweets

= 3/10

(C) P ( sweet taken out is a chocolate) = no.of chocolate/total no. of sweets

= 2/10

= 1/5
