A garden store has the following miscellaneous flower bulbs in a basket: 7 amaryllis 5 daffodils 6 lilies 4 tulips A customer bought 4 bulbs from the basket, one of each type of flower. If the next customer selects 1 of the remaining bulbs at random, which is closest to the probability that customer will get a tulip bulb? (1 point) Responses 18% 18% 83% 83% 22% 22% 17%
The probability of selecting a tulip bulb is 4 tulips out of the total remaining bulbs in the basket.
Total remaining bulbs = 7 amaryllis + 5 daffodils + 6 lilies + 4 tulips = 22 bulbs
Probability of selecting a tulip bulb = 4 tulips / 22 total bulbs = 4/22 = 2/11 ≈ 18%
Therefore, the probability that the next customer will get a tulip bulb is 18%.
