Question

There are 4 apples and 5 oranges in a box. What is the probability of picking an apple and then an orange without replacement?

Select one:
a. 5/18
b. 1/17
c. 5/11

Answer 1

Probability of apple: 4/9
Probability of orange: 5/8
4/9*5/8=.2777777778
Which become 5/18 if you make it into a fraction. So A. :)
