Colleen recorded the type of trees in the woods near her house.She counted 20 trees and 50 maple trees.What is the experimental probability that the next tree Colleen finds will be a spruce tree. Answer with a fracation

Respuesta :

Answer: The required probability is [tex]\dfrac{8}{125}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of spruce tree = 20

Number of maple tree = 50

Total trees = 70

We need to find the experimental probability that the next tree Colleen to get a spruce tree.

So, the probability would be :

[tex](\dfrac{20}{50})^3=(\dfrac{2}{5})^3=\dfrac{8}{125}[/tex]

Hence, the required probability is [tex]\dfrac{8}{125}[/tex]
