Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability the first pick is a girl: 7/10

Probability the second pick is a girl: 6/9

Probability the third pick is a girl: 5/8

Probability of picking 3 girls:

7/10 * 6/9 * 5/8 =

= (7 * 6 * 5)/(10 * 9 * 8)

= (7 * 1 * 1)/(2 * 3 * 4)

=7/24

Approximately 0.29 = 29%
