Question

a small pond contains ten catfish and four bluegill. If ten fish are caught at random, what is the probability that all of them are catfish?

Answer 1

It would be 10/14 but to simplify it's 5/7 which is aprox. 70%
I hope this helps you!

Answer 2

71.42%

Explanation:

The pond contains ten catfish and four bluegill and therefore a total of fourteen fish.

The probability of catching a catfish is:

= number of catfish/total amount of fish = 10/14 = 0.7142

The probability of catching a bluegill is:

= number of bluegill/total amount of fish = 4/14 = 0.2857

So the probability of catching all 10 catfish are 71.42%
