a) What is the chance that none of the 4 eggs contains salmonella ?
b) What is the chance that at least one of the eggs contains salmonella ?
c) What is the chance that the first egg I choose contains salmonella ? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a) 3/4*3/4*3/4*3/4 9/16*9/16=81/256=0.31640625
b) 1/4/+1/4+1/4+1/4=100%
c) 1/4
or
0 since you don't know that there is salmonella (Unknown to me) and would never find out.
