in a football tournament at group stage there are five football teams in a group, Brazil, England, Scotland, Argentina and France. Each team plays every other team in their group. There are ten matches altogether. Two teams are picked at random to play the first match. Work out the probability that the first game will be played by a European team and a South American team.

Respuesta :

Answer:

6/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Because england, scotland and france are european team and they make up 3/5 of all the teams, you multiply 3/5 by 2/5 because the south american teams are brazil and argentina which make up 2/5 of the total teams. So the probability that a european team will play a south american team is 3/5*2/5 which is 6/25
