An ice chest contains 3 types of drinks: 10 apple juries 15 grape juices and 15 bottles of water what is the probability of getting a drink that does not contain fruit juice

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: An ice chest contains 3 types of drinks: 10 apple juries 15 grape juices and 15 bottles of water.

Total drinks= 10+15+15 = 40  (Total outcomes)

Number of drink that does not contain fruit juice = Number of bottles of water = 15  (Favorable outcomes)

The probability of getting a drink that does not contain fruit juice = [tex]\dfrac{Favorable\ outxcomes}{Total\ outcomes}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{15}{40}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]

So, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] .
