Answers
GPT 3.5
Since there are only three choices of fruits and the probabilities of getting a banana and a pear are already given, we can calculate the probability of getting an orange by subtracting the sum of the probabilities of getting a banana and a pear from 1.
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - (5/12 + 1/6)
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - (10/24 + 4/24)
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - 14/24
Probability of getting an orange = 10/24
Probability of getting an orange = 5/12
Therefore, the probability of getting an orange is 5/12.
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - (5/12 + 1/6)
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - (10/24 + 4/24)
Probability of getting an orange = 1 - 14/24
Probability of getting an orange = 10/24
Probability of getting an orange = 5/12
Therefore, the probability of getting an orange is 5/12.
