NEED HELP ASAP!!!

The lists show the 10 most popular spectator sports and the five most popular participation sports. One sport is chosen at random from each list. What is the probability of choosing hockey and swimming?
A.)1/15
B.)2/50
C.)2/15
D.)1/50

Answer 1

D.)1/50

Explanation:

Given number of spectator sport = 10

number of participation sport = 5

Possible number of outcomes = 1

`P(hockey) =(Possible\ number\ of\ outcomes)/(Total\ number\ of\ outcomes)\ =(1)/(10)`

`P(swim) =(Possible\ number\ of\ outcomes)/(Total\ number\ of\ outcomes)\ =(1)/(5)`

`P(hockey \ and \ swim) = P(hockey) * P(swim) =(1)/(10) * (1)/(5) = (1)/(50)`
