Question

a candy is randomly drawn from a box with 6 chocolates, 13 candy canes, and 11 lollipops. event a: lollipop event b: candy cane p(a or b) = ? hint: p(a or b) = p(a) + p(b) round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total candies

Total = 6 + 13 + 11 = 30

Step2: Find P(A) and P(B)

P(A) = 11/30 ≈ 0.3667; P(B) = 13/30 ≈ 0.4333

Step3: Compute P(A or B)

P(A or B) = 0.3667 + 0.4333 = 0.8

Answer:

0.80
