Question

There are 5 types of fruit in a basket. There are 3 apples, 2 bananas, 4 oranges, 5 kiwi,
and 1 passionfruit. You ask a friend to bring you a piece of fruit. What is the probability of them bringing you an apple?

Answer 1

The probability of bringing an apple is 0.20

How to determine the probability?

The distribution of the fruits is given as:

• 3 apples
• 2 bananas
• 4 oranges
• 5 kiwi,
• 1 passion fruit.

The probability of bringing an apple is:

P(Apple) = Apple/Total

This gives

P(Apple) = 3/(3 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 1)

Evaluate

P(Apple) = 0.20

Hence, the probability of bringing an apple is 0.20
