Michael has three quarters two dimes + 3 nickels in his pocket he randomly draws two coins from his pocket at one time and they are both times he says the probability of that occurring as 1 out of 4 because two of the eight coins are dimes is he correct explain

He is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have 3 types of coins which are;

3 quarters

2 dimes

3 nickels

Now, we want to obtain the probability that if two coins are selected, both will be dimes.

Now, this probability is kind of delicate. This is because he is selecting only at a single time, the two coins.

Thus, the probability of the two coins coming out at the same time and they are both dimes will be 2/8 = 1/4

This shows that she is correct.

Kindly note that our answer is 1/4 because she is making the selection at the same time and not once at a time
