The
probability of picking a hazelnut chocolate i5 g
How many hazelnut chocolates are in the box?


Sagot :

The probability of picking a hazelnut chocolate is 1/5 and the number of hazelnut chocolates in the box is 1

How to determine the probability

Note that the ratios =  5:4:2:3

toffee: coffee: orange: mint chocolates = 5:4:2:3:1

Total ratio = 15

Probability of picking a hazelnut chocolate = ratio of hazelnut chocolates/ total ratio

Probability of picking a hazelnut chocolate  = [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]

The number of hazelnut chocolates in the box is gotten from the ratio which is 1

Therefore, the probability of picking a hazelnut chocolate is 1/5 and the number of hazelnut chocolates in the box is 1
