Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a 0.375 = 37.5% probability that she will pick either a yellow or orange sweet.
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
In this problem:
- There are 5 + 4 + 8 + 4 + 3 = 24 sweets, hence [tex]T = 24[/tex]
- Of those, 5 are yellow and 4 are orange, hence [tex]D = 9[/tex].
The probability that she will pick either a yellow or orange sweet is:
[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{9}{24} = 0.375[/tex]
0.375 = 37.5% probability that she will pick either a yellow or orange sweet.
