Complete question :

Anna has a box of chocolates. In the box there are milk, plain and white chocolates in the ratio 4:3:2. The box contains 72 chocolates altogether. Anna doesn't like white chocolates. Work out the probability that she will pick a chocolate that is not white?

7 / 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the number of each type of chocolate :

Milk : plain : white = 4 : 3 : 2

Total ratio = (4 +3 +2) = 9

Milk = (4/9) * 72 = 32

Plain = (3/9) * 72 = 24

White = (2/9) * 72 = 16

Probability of picking a chocolate that is not white :

Number of non-white :

(plain + milk) = (24 + 32) = 56

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

P(not white chocolate) = (number of non-white / total number of chocolates)

= 56 / 72

= 7 / 9

b) 1/3 * 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

each smallest part is 1/15 since the written one is 1/5 and it's divided by 3 equal parts. (1/5 )/3 = 1/15 = 1/3 * 1/5

answer:

125 yards

explanation:

75+50=125. that is my answer
