Probabilities are used to determine the chances of selecting a kind of donut from the box.
The probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is 0.068
The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{Bars = 6}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Chocolate = 3}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Custard= 3}[/tex]
The total number of donuts in the box is:
[tex]\mathbf{Total= 6 + 3 + 3}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Total= 12}[/tex]
The probability of eating a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is calculated using:
[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{Chocolate}{Total}\times \frac{Custard}{Total-1}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{12-1}}[/tex]
Simplify
[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{11}}[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{9}{132}}[/tex]
Divide
[tex]\mathbf{Pr = 0.068}[/tex]
Hence, the probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is approximately 0.068
