A bag of letter tiles contains 5 As 3 Bs and 2 Cs what is the probability of picking ABC in order in three draws from the bag without replacement?
The probability of picking ABC, in that order, from 5 A's, 3 B's, and 2 C's, without replacement, is (5 in 10) times (3 in 9) times (2 in 8), or 30 in 720, or 3 in 72, or 1 in 24.
What is the probability of picking an s in the word Mississippi?
The probability of picking an 's' in the word Mississippi is 100% - you will always find one ... eventually. However if you mean with single choice from the 11 characters of the word Mississippi, then the probability is 4 chances in 11 which is just over 36% or a probability of 0.363636 recurring. My odd answer illustrates the need to pose questions without ambiguity. Beano GB
What is the probability of picking an ace or picture card from a deck of cards?
If you pick 37 cards without replacement, or pick a card from the bottom of a mint deck, the probability is 1: it is a certainty. If you pick a random card from a deck, then the probability is 4/13.
What is the probability of chossing 12 marbles from a jar in numercial order?
The probability of picking the #1 marble on the first draw is 1/12. If you've done that, then the probability of picking the #2 marble on the second draw is 1/11. If you've done that, then, the probability of picking the #3 marble on the third draw is 1/10. If you've done that, then, the probability of picking the #4 marble on the fourth draw is 1/11. etc. etc. So the probability of doing all of them in sequence is (1/12) x (1/11) x . . . x (1/1). That's exactly the reciprocal of (12!). According to my $1.49 calculator, your chances of success without peeking amount to about 0.00000020877 percent (rounded) Not a smart bet.
What is the probability of picking a 5 from a standard deck of 52 cards?
The answer depends on how many cards are picked. It is 1 if you pick 49 cards without replacement. If only one card is picked at random, the probability is 1/13.
A bag has 7 blue marbles and 8 purple marbles.What is the probability of picking a blue marble then a purple marble without replacing?
7/15 for blue marbles and 8/14 for the purple marbles this is dependent probability
A bag has 8 blacks balls and 2 white balls what is the probability of picking one black ball without looking Write your answer as a decimal whats the answer?
0.8.
A bag contains 5 green marbles 3 yellow and 2 red marbles. What is the probability of picking three green marbles from the bag without replacement?
To find the answer to probability, first add all the things together (5+3+2=10), then, find the number of things you will be taking from the group of things (3), and put together as a fraction (3/10). So the final answer is 3/10, which is unlikely. :D
A jar contains three colored marbles 10 red 15 green and 25 blue If you were to choose without looking what is the probability of selecting a blue marble?
25/50 gives the probability of selecting a blue marble
There were 6 purple socks and 4 orange socks in a drawer Zucky picked one sock without looking and then another without looking replacing the first what is the probability that he picked 2 purple?
Probability of picking purple sock first time is 6/10 or 3/5, second time, probability is 5/9. Thus 3/5 * 5/9 = 15/45 which cancels to 1/3
