Joseph buys a bag of 60 pieces of taffy. in the bag, there are 12 cinnamon pieces, 18 raspberry pieces, 18 key lime pieces, and the rest are candy apple pieces. if he randomly draws one piece of taffy, what is the probability that it is a piece of raspberry taffy?

Probability can be expressed as a ratio of desired cases to the whole number cases possible.

So, there a total of 60 pieces of taffy and we want to know what are the chances of drawing a raspberry taffy. We know there are 18 pieces of taffy that are raspberry flavor.

We can express this as a ratio. 18:60.

Simplify.

18:60 = 3:10

Convert the ratio into a decimal. To do this, divide the top by the bottom.

3:10 = 0.3

Now make it into a percent. Just move the decimal point two places to the right and make into a % sign.

0.3 = 30%

So, there will be a 30% of drawing a raspberry flavored taffy piece.

Maybe fx = lxl because of the way the x is positioned is that what he
