Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!
A fruit basket contains 6 apples and 8 oranges. Sarah randomly selects one, puts it back, and then randomly selects another. What is the probability that both selections were oranges?

A. 4/49 B. 9/49 C. 12/49 D. 16/49

Answer 1

there are 14 fruits in total.
the probability that she pick an orange is 8/14...then she puts the orange back.
so the probabilty that she picks another orange is 8/14 again.
so because it is one senlection AND then another.. we will multiply both probabilties..
so 8/14 x 8/14...and then you get your answer...

Answer 2

so 4/49?

Answer 3

yes
