WILL FAN AND GIVE MEDAL Jason has two bags with 6 tiles each. Without looking, Jason draws a tile from the first bag and then a tile from the second bag. What is the probability of Jason drawing the tile numbered 5 from the first bag and an odd tile from the second bag

1/12 I think... I haven't really learnt this yet I am not responsible if wrong haha jk

OpenStudy (asad786):

i think 1 for the first bag

OpenStudy (asad786):

3 for the second

OpenStudy (asad786):

but not sure

There are twelve tiles in both bags. I'm assuming the tiles are number 1-12 in the bags. That would mean 5 only occurs once, making it 1/12. Since the second bag would go from 7-12, the odd numbers would be 7, 9 and 11. Since odd numbers occur three times in the second bag, it s 3/12. 3/12 + 1/12 = 4/12 which can be simplified to 1/3. Sorry if I'm wrong!! :-) I'm not quite sure, but I think that's the answer.
