There is a box of 8 cookies. There are 1 sugar, 3 chocolate chip, and 4 peanut butter. What is the probability of selecting a chocolate chip cookie then another chocolate chip cookie if you DO NOT replace the first cookie?
that would be a 2:7 chance that you get another chocolate chip cookie. if you were to take one cookie the amount of cookies go down by one. so that makes 7 cookies total. there were 3 chocolate chip. you took one so that makes 2 chocolate chip cookies left. 2:7 equals a 3.5% chance that you get another chocolate chip cookie.
