Probability of no cracked on 1st selection is 3/9, second is 2/8, so multiply 3/9 & 2/8 to get 6/72 or 1/12 or 0.0833.

A package contains 9 candy canes 6 of which are cracked If 2 are selected find the probability of getting no cracked candy canes?
Total possibilities = 9x8 Uncracked possibilities = 3x2 = 6/72 = 1/12
The probability of a person getting a cold is .7 What is the probability that 4 people if selected randomly will get a cold?
If the events can be considered independent then the probability is (0.7)4 = 0.24 approx.
If a machine contains 125 gumballs and the probability of getting a red gumball is 3 over 5 What is the probability of not getting a red gumball?
2/5
A machine contains 125 gumballs if the probability of getting a red gumball is 3 over 5 what is the probability of not getting a red gumball?
An event can either happen or not happen. If the probability of it happening is 3/5,then the probability of it not happening is 2/5.

What is the probability of getting two prime numbers 1-10?
The probability of getting two prime numbers when two numbers are selected at random and without replacement, from 1 to 10 is 2/15.

If you have 4 green balls 2 red balls and 1 blue what is probability of getting a green?
It is 1/7 if a ball is selected at random.
What is the probability that certain genotypes and phenotypes will occur?
This depends entirely on the genotype of the parents. The probability of getting a specific genotype is the probability of getting the correct allele from mother (1/2) multiplied by the probability of getting the correct allele from father (1/2) multiplied by the number of ways this can occur. The probability of getting a phenotype, if the phenotype is dominant, is the sum of the probability of getting two dominant alleles, and the probability of getting one dominant allele. If the phenotype is recessive, the probability is equal to the probability of getting two recessive alleles.
What is the probability of getting kidnapped?
There is no probability. Sorry.
Toss a coin-randomly select a number from 0 to 9 What is the probability of getting tails and selecting a 0?
The result of tossing the coin would not affect which number was selected. So we say that these two events are independent. We can therefore assess the probability of each of them separately and then multiply the two probabilities together for a final result. Probability of getting tails: 1/2 (since there is one way of getting heads out of two possibilities) Probability of getting zero: 1/10 (since there is one way of getting zero out of ten possibilities) Overall probability: 1/2 x 1/20 = 1/20
What is the probability of getting a queen and a heart?
The probability of getting the queen of hearts is 1 in 52, or about 0.01923. The probability of getting any queen is 4 in 52, or about 0.07692. The probability of getting any heart is 13 in 52, or exactly 0.25.
