Juan has a toy chest with 2 footballs, 3 baseballs, and 1 basketball. If Juan selects two balls, what is the probability that he will first select a baseball, return it back into the toy chest, and then select a basketball?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(p baseball) = 1/2

(p basketball) = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the number of toys together to find how many there are total.

2 + 3 + 1 = 6

Find the probability of selecting a baseball.

(p baseball) = 3/6

reduce by dividing by 3

(p baseball) = 1/2

Since the toy is returned, the total number doesn't change.

(p basketball) = 1/6
