Jack had four bags of M&M's and eight Reese's cups. He randomly chose a piece of candy, ate it, then chose another. What is the probability that both pieces of candy were Reese's cups. Show work. please help me!!!​

Fraction: 8/12

percentage: 66.666666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Add the amount of bags together-

4 + 8 = 12

2) convert the numbers into a fraction, aka just put the amount of bags of Reece’s as the numerator, and the number of bags total as the denominator.-

8/12

hence, there is a 8/12 probability that both pieces of candy chosen were Reece’s.

if you want it to be a percentage just look at the steps below:

1) 100 ÷ 12 = 8.3333333333333 (we want to convert the denominator to 100 so we divide the original denominator by 100)

2) Once we have that, we can multiple both the numerator and denominator by this multiple:

8 x 8.3333333333333/12 x 8.3333333333333 = 66.666666666667/100

hence, the fraction as a percentage is 66.666666666667.

have a lovely day/night!
