Question

A basket contains four apples, three pears, two peaches, if we draw one fruit from the basket, what is the probability of getting a peach or an apple?

Answer 1

The probability of getting a peach or an apple is 2/3.

Explanation:

There are two peaches and four apples, so six fruits we want to know the probability of getting, and there are also three pears, which means we have nine fruits total. The chance of getting an apple or a pear is six out of nine, which simplifies to two out of three.
