Question

You're having dinner at a restaurant that serves 555 kinds of pasta (spaghetti, bow ties, fettuccine, ravioli, and macaroni) in 444 different flavors (tomato sauce, cheese sauce, meat sauce, and olive oil). If you randomly pick your kind of pasta and flavor, what is the probability that you'll end up with something other than tomato spaghetti?

Answer 1

The probability is 0.95 or 95%.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 kinds of pasta and 4 different flavors.

To calculate total possible outcome of combination of pasta and flavor, we multiply each kind of pasta with each flavors = 5 × 4

= 20 possible combination

There are only one combination of tomato spaghetti that will not work.

so the probability that you'll end up with something other than tomato spaghetti

$P=\frac{\text{number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{total outcomes}}$

$P=\frac{19}{20}$

   = 0.95 or 95%

The probability is 0.95 or 95%.
