Question

1 point10.10. Jeri bought her friend Lynn 1 scoop of ice creamin a cone. The store had 6 flavors (vanilla,chocolate, strawberry, mint, rocky road, and coffee)along with 2 different types of cones (waffleand regular). What is the probability that Jerirandomly selected a scoop of chocolate ice creamin a waffle cone for Lynn?

Answer 1

Given data:

The numbers of flavors are f=6.

The types of cones are c=2.

The expression for the probability that Jeri select chocolate flavor in waffle cone is,

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{1}{2} \\ =\frac{1}{12} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the probability that eri select chocolate flavor in waffle cone is 1/12, so option (A) is correct.
