Question

alicia takes 4 white 2 red and 3 lue shirts on the trip. on the first day alicia will pick a shirt at random. what is the probability that she picks a red shirt?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Probability of Alicia picking a red shirt is $\frac{2}{9}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of White shirts = 4

Number of Red shirts = 2

Number of Blue shirts = 3

Solution,

Total number of shirts = Number of White shirts + Number of Red shirts + Number of Blue shirts = $4+2+3=9$

$P(E)=\frac{Total\ number\ of\ possible\ outcomes}{Total\ number\ of\ outcomes}$

Therefore,

$P(of\ red\ shirts)=\frac{2}{9}$

Hence The Probability of Alicia picking a red shirt is $\frac{2}{9}$.
