Question

There are 10 large fish and 5 small fish.half of the large fish are red .o e fish is selected at random.find the probability that it’s the large ,red fish

Answer 1

If a fish is selected at random, the probability that it’s the large, red fish is 1/3

How to determine the probability?

The given parameters are:

Large fish = 10

Small fish = 5

Large red fish = 5

If a fish is selected at random, the probability that it’s the large, red fish is

P(Large, Red) = n(Large, Red)/Total

So, we have:

P(Large, Red) = 5/(10 + 5)

Evaluate

P(Large, Red) = 5/15

This gives

P(Large, Red) = 1/3

Hence, if a fish is selected at random, the probability that it’s the large, red fish is 1/3
