Rodney packs 3 shirts for a trip. It is early morning so he just grabs 3shirts randomly from his closet. The closet contains 10 shirts: 5 striped, 3 plaid, and 2solid colored ones. What is the probability that he chose 2 striped and 1 plaid shirt

Probability of choosing 2 stripped and 1 plaid shirts = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of stripped shirt in the closet = 5

Number of plaid shirts = 3

Number of solid color shirts = 2

Total number of shirts = 10

Number ways to pick 2 stripped out of 5 stripped shirts =

                                                                =

                                                                = 10

Similarly, number of ways to pick 1 plaid shirt out of 3 plaid shirts =

                                                                 =

                                                                 = 3

Total number of ways to pick 3 shirts out of 10 =

                                                                 =

                                                                 = 120

Therefore, probability of choosing 2 stripped and 1 plaid shirt
