Have a nice day

The probability that a Karen will choose a dime from the jar will be [tex]0.3[/tex] and then Mikah will choose a quarter from the jar will be [tex]0.24[/tex].

What is probability ?

Probability is the ratio of favorable outcome to the total number of outcome.

Probability [tex]=\frac{Number\ of\ Favorable\ Outcome}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcome}[/tex]

We have,

A coin jar contains ;

[tex]12[/tex] quarters,

[tex]15[/tex] dimes, and

[tex]23[/tex] nickels

So,

Total number of coins [tex]=12+15+23=50[/tex]

So,

The Probability Karen choose a dime [tex]=\frac{15}{50}=0.3[/tex]

And,

The Probability Mikah choose a quarter [tex]=\frac{12}{50}=0.24[/tex]

Hence, we can say that the probability that a Karen will choose a dime from the jar will be [tex]0.3[/tex] and then Mikah will choose a quarter from the jar will be [tex]0.24[/tex].
