C. 1/6
D. 2/3

help me!

Answer 2

I think there seem to be flavours missing from the list

all possible flavors N = { vanilla, chocolate chip, strawberry, lime} so there are 4 flavors, but the problem says there are 6 .
the asked after flavor = {with chocolate in it}

Of the 6 choices there is only 1 with chocolate in it, namely chocolate chip.

So, the asked after choice = {chocolate chip}. There is only one wanted choice.

chance P = number of asked after choice / all possible flavors

-> P = 1/ 6
