types; 8 dark chocolate-coated caramels, 7 milks chocolate-coated caramels,7
dark chocolate-coated nuts, 6 milk chocolate-coated vanilla creams, 8 dark

caramels in a row.''.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 43 pieces.
You are selecting without replacing the candies.
P(2dark cc cheerries in a row)= (8/43)*(7/42)
Then get 5 caramels in a row = (7/41)(6/40)(5/39)(4/38)(3/37)
Multiply all these to get the probability you want.
