The probability of drawing another student from the Acers on the second try is 1/78.
Explanation:
After drawing a student from the Acers on the first try, there will be 77 students left in the Acers team and a total of 399 students left in the school. Therefore, the probability of drawing another student from the Acers on the second try is 77/399 = 1/78.
Stillwater Junior High divides students into teams taught by a group of teachers. The table shows the number of students in each team. Team Number of Students Acers 78 Blazers 80 Outbacks 83 Quasars 77 Voyagers 82 Total 400 The principal uses a computer to randomly select the name of a student from all the students in the school. With the computer program, it is possible to draw the name of the same student twice. If the principal selects the name of a student from the Acers on the first try, what is the probability she will draw the name of another student from the Acers on the second try?
