The letters "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", and "F" are written on six slips of paper, and the slips are placed into a hat. If the slips are drawn randomly without replacement, what is the probability that "E" is drawn first and "B" is drawn second?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/30

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting ”E” is 1/6.

There is only 1 “E” out of 6 letters.

There is no replacement.

There are now 5 letters without “E”.

”A”, “B”, “C”, “D”, “F”

The probability of getting ”B” is 1/5.

There is only 1 “B” out of 5 letters.

⇒ 1/6 × 1/5

⇒ 1/30
