Tamara likes to mix and match her 4 scarves, 3 pairs of gloves, and 2 hats. The colors are in the table. On Monday, she randomly picks out a pair of gloves. What is the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat?
scarf | gloves | hat
red | black | white
White| brown | red
Brown| red |
black
To find the probability, we need to determine the total number of possible outcomes and the number of outcomes that satisfy the given condition.
Total number of possible outcomes = 3 (Tamara has 3 pairs of gloves to choose from)
Number of outcomes that satisfy the condition = 1 (Tamara has only one pair of brown gloves and only one red hat)
Therefore, the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat is:
1/3 or approximately 0.33 or 33.3%
To find the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat, we need to consider the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes.
Total number of possible outcomes = Total number of gloves pairs = 3
Number of favorable outcomes = Number of pairs of brown gloves and red hat = 1
Therefore, the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat is 1/3 or approximately 0.33.
To find the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat, we need to first determine the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes.
There are a total of 3 pairs of gloves and 2 hats, so the total number of possible outcomes is 3 * 2 = 6.
Out of the 3 pairs of gloves, only one pair is brown. And out of the 2 hats, only one hat is red. So there is only one favorable outcome: choosing the brown gloves and the red hat.
Therefore, the probability of Tamara choosing a pair of brown gloves and a red hat is 1 out of 6, which can be simplified to 1/6 or approximately 0.1667.
