Question

a fruit basket contains 10 mangoes, 8 bananas, and 2 oranges. If we picked 6 mangoes in 10 trials from the fruit basket, what would be the experimental probability?

Answer 1

prob of mango = 10/20 = 1/2
prob not a mango = 1/2

prob of 6 mangos out of 10
= C(10,6) (1/2)^6 (1/2)^4
= 210 (1/1024) = 210/1024 = 105/512

Answer 2

P of M = 10/20 (50%)
P of 6M =10/120 (8.33333%)

OR...

10F = 8+2 \ 1/\/\ o/
10M = 10 / 1\/\/ /o
P of M = 1/2
P of 6m = (1/2) / 6 = 1/12
