A box of chocolates contains four milk chocolates and five dark chocolates. You randomly pick a chocolate and eat it. Then you randomly pick another piece. What are the odds that both pieces were milk chocolate?( show explanation)

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly the question is a probability without replacement because the chocolate are eaten after being picked .

next sum the total chocolate in the bag (4+5)=9

now probability is possible outcome over total outcome.

P(a)and p(b) =p(a)xp(b)

p(a)=4 /9

p(b)=3/8 ... because there will be 3 milk chocolate and 5dark chocolate left

hance P=(4/9)(3/8)

=1/6

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
