<PRE><B>Question 383227</B>
Kelly brought 8 apples, 3 pears, and 13 oranges and brought them home in a grocery bag. If she picks one from the bag without looking what is the probability of choosing an apple? a pear? an orange?
-------------------------------------------------------------- 
The chances of choosing an apple are 8/24 = 1/3
The chances of choosing an pear are 3/24 = 1/8
The chances of choosing an orange are 13/24
