I have a bag of trail mix. One half of the bag is peanuts, one-fourth of the bag is chocolate candies, and one-fourth of the bag is dried fruit. What is the likelihood of drawing a chocolate candy?
1. It is less likely than drawing a peanut.
2. 1/2

To find the likelihood of drawing a chocolate candy, we need to determine the fraction of the bag that is made up of chocolate candies.
Given that one-fourth of the bag is chocolate candies, we can express this as a fraction: 1/4.
Since the total bag can be divided into halves, we can combine the fraction of peanuts (1/2) and the fraction of chocolate candies (1/4) to find the fraction of the bag that is made up of chocolate candies:
1/2 + 1/4 = 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
So, the likelihood of drawing a chocolate candy from the bag is 3/4.
