Question
Ahmed buys two dozen eggs. As he is cooking one day he discovers that three of the two dozen eggs have double yolks! Based on this experiment, what is the experimental probability of selecting a double yolk egg from a pack of eggs?
A.10%
B. 12%
C. 12.5%
D. 25 %
I think is 25% because it says from a pack meaning one ; so from a dozen; so p=3/12=1/4
which is 25%. Am I right? Thank you.
