A shop sells 6 types of sweets (chocolate, taffy, gummies, cookies, brownies, and sweet tarts), 3 types of snacks (chips, crackers, and bananas), and 3 types of drinks (soda, juice, and water). The shop owners randomly package a "goody bag" of 1 sweet, 1 snack, and 1 drink. What is the probability that the goody bag contains taffy, chips, and soda?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The probability is [tex]\frac{1}{54}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A shop sells 6 types of sweets.

It sells 3 types of snacks.

And it sells 3 types of drinks.

The shop owners randomly package a "goody bag" of 1 sweet, 1 snack, and 1 drink.

So, the probability that the goody bag contains taffy, chips, and soda is :

[tex]\frac{1}{6} \times\frac{1}{3} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{54}[/tex]
