Suppose your vehicle is licensed in a state that issues license plates that consist of three digits (between 0 and 9) followed by three letters (between a and z). if a license number is selected randomly, what is the probability that yours is the one selected?

The probability that yours is the one selected is:

It is given that:

Your vehicle is licensed in a state that issues license plates that consist of three digits (between 0 and 9) followed by three letters (between A and Z).

The total number of license plates that are possible are:

10×10×10×26×26×26=17576000

Now, the probability that yours is the one selected is:

13.33%

say 50 oranges, then 100 apples

80 are red, 20 are yellow

total fruit = 150

20chances out of 150 for yellow

20/150 = 13.33%
