what is the probability of choosing a red necklace?

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

i don't know i suck at math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 questions. 1. how many necklace choices are there? 2. how many of them are red?

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

there are 4 necklace choices and only 1 is red

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so there is a 1 in 4 chance of choosing a red necklace, and the probability is 1/4. Do the same thing to find the probability of choosing a yellow bracelet

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

so 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find the probability of doing both, multiply them 1/4 * 1/2

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

okay thanks so 1/8 is the answer? but do you know what dependent means in math? @peachpi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it's 1/8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dependent events are when the probabililty of one event changes based on what happened in another event. Like a 52 card deck has 4 kings. The probability of picking a king the first time is 4/52. The probability of getting a king for a second pick depends on the results of the first. If you got a king the 1st time, it's 3/51. If you didn't, it's 4/51

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

what is 2/12 in simplest form @peachpi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/6

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

okay thank s

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

so what is 2/12 as a decimal?
