You can put this solution on YOUR website!
My approach would be
\n" ); document.write( "How many possible 3 toppings are there?
\n" ); document.write( "Combinations of 14 things taken 3 at a time
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"14%21%2F%283%21%2A%2814-3%29%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "How many 3 toppings are just veggie?
\n" ); document.write( "Combinations of 8 things taken 3 at a time
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"8%21%2F%283%21%2A%288-3%29%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The probability of getting 3 toppings just veggie
\n" ); document.write( "is (2) divided by (1)
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"14%21%2F%283%21%2A%2814-3%29%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"14%21%2F%283%21%2A11%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"12%2A13%2A14+%2F+%283%2A2%2A1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"2184%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"364\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"8%21%2F%283%21%2A%288-3%29%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"8%21%2F%283%21%2A5%21%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"8%2A7%2A6%2F%283%2A2%2A1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"336%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"56\"
\n" ); document.write( "Probability 3 toppings are veggie
\n" ); document.write( "\"56%2F364+=+2%2F13\"
\n" ); document.write( "Hope I got it
\n" ); document.write( "
