Question

Suppose you have 25 socks in a drawer. 13 socks are white, 6 socks are black, and the rest are brown. What is the probability that if you randomly select a sock from the drawer that it sill be black. Round your answer to two decimal places. Your Answer:

Answer 1

Explanation:

To calculate the probability of randomly selecting a black sock from the drawer, you'll need to divide the number of black socks by the total number of socks. In this case, the total number of socks is 25, and there are 6 black socks.

Probability = Number of black socks / Total number of socks

Probability = 6 / 25

Now, calculate the probability:

Probability = 0.24

Rounded to two decimal places, the probability of randomly selecting a black sock from the drawer is 0.24.

Answer 2

`(6)/(24) * 5 / 24 = 0`
