There are 10 cups placed on a table face down. Beneath each cup is one coin. Together, there are 5 quarters, 2 nickels, and 3 dimes. One cup is randomly selected, replaced, and then another cup is selected. What is the probability of getting a quarter then a nickel?

The options are
- 3/20
- 1/10
- 1/9
- 7/10
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 / 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Prob of  getting a quarter on the first draw  =  (5/10)

Prob of getting a nickel on the second draw  = (2/10)

So......the overall probability  is   (5/10) (2/10)  =  10 / 100  =    1 / 10

Took the test and this is the correct answer
