Question

There are 5 blue counters and 6 brown counters in a bag. What is the probability of choosing a blue counter, not replacing it, then choosing a brown counter?

Answer 1

P(choosing a blue counter) =1/11

P(choosing a brown counter) =1/10

Explanation:

Possible outcome=

5 + 6 = 11

P(blue counter) =1/11

without replacement(11 -1 =10)

P(brown counter) = 1/10
