Question 350618: For a certain candy, 10% of the pieces are yellow, 15% are red, 20% are blue, 15% are green, and the rest are brown.
If you pick three pieces in a row, what is the probability that at least one of them is green? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi,
*Note: probablity that at least one is green is: 1-probability that none are green.
85% are other than green.
.
probability that none are green when picking three
.
probablity that at least one is green when picking three
1- .614 = .386
.
38.6% chance at least one will be green.
