For her softball uniform, Meredith has a green or white jersey. She also has white, green, or striped shorts. If Meredith chooses a jersey and shorts randomly, what is the probability that she will go to softball practice in a green jersey and green shorts?
A)1/6
B)1/5
C)5/6
D)1
There are 2 choices for the jersey and 3 choices for the shorts, so there are a total of 2 * 3 = 6 possible outfits.
Only 1 of these outfits includes a green jersey and green shorts.
Therefore, the probability that she will go to softball practice in a green jersey and green shorts is 1/6.
The answer is therefore choice A) 1/6.
