Pedro has gotten on base 4 out of the last 5 times he was a bat. He scores 50% of the time he gets on base. What is the probability that Pedro will get on base and score on his next at bat?

well its simple multiply P(on base) x P(scoring) = 4/5 x 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so.... 0.4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep... so the question is saying if you get of base 4/5 = 80% and you score on 1/2 or 50% of times then half of 80% is 40% or 4/10 or 0.4

I meant to reply but my teacher got mad sorry! Thanks for the help. So 4/5 is the answer, correct?
