Question

Mrs. Owen made a big lucky bag containing a variety of small gifts for the guests of the local festival. In the lucky bag
she put 31 chocolate bars, 22 picture frames, 16 penlights and 27 pen sets. The boy next door receives one of these
gifts from the lucky bag. What are the chances of him getting a penlight?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

p(e) = total no. of events/no. of favorable events

total no. of things / no. of penlights

31 + 22 + 16 + 27 / 16

=96/16

=6
