Respuesta :
P( it occurring once) = 6/11
Now as the 3 events are independent we multiply the probs:-
P( apple picked 3 times) = 6/11 * 6/11 * 6/11 = 216/1331 or about 16.2%
Now as the 3 events are independent we multiply the probs:-
P( apple picked 3 times) = 6/11 * 6/11 * 6/11 = 216/1331 or about 16.2%
Answer:
16.22%
Step-by-step explanation:
A basket contains six apples and five peaches.
Total fruits in the basket = 6 + 5 = 11
The probability of selecting a piece of fruit is an apple [tex]P_{1}=\frac{6}{11}[/tex]
Now return it to the basket and select a fruit. so all events are independent.
Therefore, the probability of each time selecting an apple is same.
Probability=[tex]P_{1}\times P_{2}\times P_{3}[/tex]
P =[tex]\frac{6}{11}[/tex]× [tex]\frac{6}{11}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{6}{11}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{216}{1331}[/tex] = 16.22%
The probability of all three times the fruit is an apple is 16.22%
