Help I don't understand it.

6/15 * 2/14 = 12/210

Step-by-step explanation:

This is compound probability. To calculate compound probability, you need to multiply the probabilities of each event happening together.

In this example, the events are selecting a pineapple cake, then a strawberry cake.

Let's find the probabilities!

There are 2 strawberry cakes, 6 pineapple cakes, and 7 chocolate cakes. This means that he has 15 cakes in total.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a pineapple cake is 6/15.

Now, if we assume that he has selected a pineapple cake already, there are now 14 cakes.

Next, the probability of selecting a strawberry cake is now 2/14. This is because he already took a pineapple cake, and now he has to pick a strawberry cake out of the remaining 14 cakes.

Multiply these two probabilities to find the compound probability: 12/210 ( this could be further simplified, but that's how they give it to you! )

Hope this helps! Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions :)
