Question

A bag contains 6​ cherry, 3​ orange, and 2 lemon candies. You reach in and take 3 pieces of candy at random. Find the probability.
2​ orange, 1 lemon

Answer 1

P(2oranges and 1lemon)=2/3 (orange) · 1/2 (lemon)
P(2O and 1L) = 2/6 = 1/3
1/3 chance of getting 2 orange and 1 lemon out of the bag.
