Step 1: Calculate the probability of Jameson picking a banana:
- There are a total of 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 5 = 14 fruits in the basket.
- Jameson has 2 bananas to choose from out of these 14 fruits.
- Therefore, the probability of Jameson picking a banana is 2/14.
Step 2: Calculate the probability of Brittany picking a pear:
- After Jameson picks a fruit, there are now 13 fruits remaining in the basket.
- Out of these 13 fruits, there are 2 pears left.
- Therefore, the probability of Brittany picking a pear is 2/13.
Step 3: Multiply the probabilities together:
- The probability of Jameson picking a banana is 2/14.
- The probability of Brittany picking a pear, given that Jameson has already picked a fruit, is 2/13.
- So, the probability of both events happening together is (2/14) * (2/13).
Now, let's simplify this product:
(2/14) * (2/13) = 4/182 = 2/91
Therefore, the correct answer is option C. The probability that Jameson gets a banana and Brittany gets a pear is 2/91.
