Question

a cooler contains 100 ice cream bars. there are 10 vanilla bars, 20 mint chocolate chip bars, 30 strawberry bars, and 40 rocky road bars. if one bar is randomly selected determine the probability that the bar selected is vanilla.

the probability that the bar selected is vanilla is .

<reasoning>

Identify the total number of outcomes

\[
N = 100
\]

Identify the number of favorable outcomes

\[
n = 10
\]

Calculate and simplify the probability

\[
P(\text{Vanilla}) = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10}
\]
</reasoning>
